    Flower shop owner next door took pictures of our group to post on this pumpkin patch's social media (owners of the two places are family). Wish she asked for our permission first but we also shouldn't have assumed she was taking a picture for us on one of our phones. She's just like "the pictures will be posted on IG tomorrow" and left. We're looking at each other, "that wasn't your phone?" Pumpkin patch itself is really small and they have a mini haunted house for $10. It was some of our first time going and if this disappointment is how pumpkin patches are, I wouldn't go again. The store itself looks more interesting than the pumpkin patch. Employees are nice though and lots of street parking.

    Wrong advertisement!!!!

    Be warn for a false advertisement. They charged different prices for different color of pumpkin despite the same sizes. I bought 1 small and 2 medium sizes which from the prices they advertise I should only paying of 50 total ($10 for small and $25 for medium size), not a $90!!!!! I was going to let it go but I don't want my little niece got upset if I ended up not buying them. However I look at yelp offering $75 for $50, so I ended paying $65 after the yelp coupon Totally not worth it , big disappointment!!

    Pumpkins!

    Fantastic job on making Halloween fun! Great community store & community members and don't forget to pet their dog "Pumpkin".

    Any decent pumpkin patch has some rules...

    This is an urban pumpkin patch of sorts. Located right on Piedmont, it's simply a store front with Halloween decorations and costumes inside, a small selection of pumpkins arranged in hay out back. Some unique selections, good photo ops on the hay bales and if you're game an $8 per person haunted house (I did not partake.) Not a destination, per se, but a perfectly fine spot to grab some pumpkins for Halloween and support a local business.

    Not a huge selection, nor cheap -- but very friendly, and if you have a toddler or other tot, they will love racing around the hay bales and checking out the store's selection of scary knick-knacks. We were able to pick up 2 pumpkins and a child-safe carving knife here (though the fingerpaints had to be found elsewhere) and Junior had a swell time decorating his very first Halloween pumpkin with his Mom and Pop.

    Hmmm, I've been thinking about it for a while, and I think part of the reason why people are disappointed with the Piedmont Avenue Pumpkin Patch is because of the branding. For most people, when you hear "pumpkin patch," you are probably imagining driving up to a moderately sized field and being greeted by the sigh of hay bales, maybe a scarecrow or two, and a wide open space with rows and rows of a wide variety of pumpkins. Maybe you think there'll be activities for the kids, like an inflatable bouncy house or wagon rides or games, etc. etc. So when you arrive at the address for the Piedmont Avenue Pumpkin Patch and find that the access point for the pumpkins patch is a storefront nestled on the corner of a moderately busy street amongst other shops, I think it's fair to be somewhat confused and perhaps a tad disappointed. Now, if you knew in advance that the Piedmont Avenue Pumpkin Patch was not a large farm/field-esque pumpkin patch, and instead, an urban pumpkin patch seeking to bring some Halloween magic to the neighborhood, you might have a better idea of what to expect. SO, to get to the pumpkin patch, you do go through essentially a Halloween store, filled with Halloween costumes and decorations, and even a haunted house. If you traverse all the way to the back of the store, it opens up into a backyard-esque pumpkin patch. It's not the biggest, but they do have a decent selection of pumpkins in all different size and price ranges. Because it's on the smaller end, you will probably find yourself trying to squeeze by people and trying not to run over the little kids running around, but it's not bad. The pumpkins are a bit more expensive than what you'd find at a place like Trader Joe's for instance, but also... you chose to go to a local pumpkin patch and not a chain store for a reason, so what did you expect? tl;dr: I feel bad about the 3-star review. This is a fine urban pumpkin patch. I think if I went in knowing that, I would be totally ok with it, but I went in expecting full on traditional pumpkin patch and all that that connotes. So basically, I hope you read up on the Piedmont Avenue Pumpkin Patch and know what to expect!

    This place is awesome! It's a cute setup in the back of a flower shop with a pop up halloween costume store. I thought I would only be satisfied by going to a pumpkin farm but this was the next best thing! They have a huge variety of pumpkins and gourds grown in the bay area and the people that own the place are super friendly. A big, special pumpkin will run you $30 but there are plenty of smaller pumpkins and squash that you can get for $4 and up. check this place out!

    I was initially so confused when I drove up and didn't see an empty lot or parking spaces turned into a patch. Instead, this is more of a store with a backyard with pumpkins in it. It's not obvious when you drive by on Piedmont, look for the inflatable Halloween decoration - right next to the car wash on the corner. The backyard "patch" is very small, but there is hay, a variety of pumpkins and spooky Halloween decorations covering the backyard. I picked out a small/medium sized pumpkin and it was $10.00, a bit overpriced in my opinion. Knowing what I know now, I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. I was a little disappointed, since I was expecting a bit more. However the owner is super nice and friendly!! This is a great place if you happen to be in the area and have very small children (not a super overwhelming patch).

    This is a florist not a pumpkin patch. Not sure why so many people gave it good reviews. The name is extremely misleading!

On a Saturday morning, I found parking without much trouble and checkout was reasonable too. They have a huge selection of Rancho Gordo beans, the local yogurt and milk brands (Clover, Strauss) I prefer, many varieties of produce, good quality bread, and some bulk goods. The variety of the produce beats most if not all stores I've been to in the area and the quality and freshness was great too. The only reason I give them 4 and not 5 stars is they do have some items on the more expensive side and that are less than ideal especially if you get them out of season. For example, I paid almost $9 for a few peaches and they were pretty bad. But as long as you pay attention to what you are buying and buy what looks and smells good, you should be good. As a bonus, they source from a few of my favorite Bay Area farms including the one my CSA is from. Huge mushrooom selection- they seem priced higher than some Asian stores and sometimes farmer's markets but the selection is very good. My one thing is they definitely seem to go for volume and breadth of selection so it seems like that means selling non peak produce that is out of season in some cases. Overall, I'm a fan and this will probably be a somewhat regular trip for me.

They were very responsive when I was ordering things. :( They say they pick produce at its ripest but I don't think this means as it is about to turn. The delivery set up is different each week. Sometimes a swap box, sometimes not, sometimes it's awkward to get your stuff, sometimes it's so easy! I won't continue when my subscription is up.
