fun for the entire family!

One year we grew pumpkins, had more than we needed so we put a little wagon across the road and the rest is history! Plus, who doesn't love Fall in Minnesota?!

Thea's Pumpkin Patch started in the Fall of 2010 with one acre of pumpkins - we currently grow between 7 and 8 acres of pumpkins and gourds. Over 30 different varieties! In 2016, we expanded our venture and added a corn maze! Each year, we change the maze theme and design and it is a crowd favorite. We have had visitors from all around the midwest and even California visit our 'small town pumpkin patch'.

Bring the kids out, enjoy the FUN games, stroll through the maze, grab a snack and pick out your perfect pumpkin - what a PERFECT way to enjoy an afternoon surrounded by the beauty of Minnesota. When you're done, you can take a beautiful drive through Otter Tail County on the historic Otter Trail Scenic Byway, located just minutes from our farm! Thea's Pumpkin Patch has full concessions available, as well as face painting, pumpkin painting & crazy hair on weekends.

the rest is history in the making!

Thea is 20 years old and in her third year of college at Bemidji State University, where she is studying Business Management. After graduating, she hopes to work in the agriculture industry and continue building a life around her love for farming and the outdoors.
In her spare time, Thea enjoys riding and competing with her horse, thrifting and antiquing, western fashion, watching her “nerdy” shows like marvel and Star Wars, and spending time taking care of her “funny farm” and all of her animals. This year, Thea plans to renovate and move into her grandma’s farmhouse, making it her own. She is also preparing to take over the majority of Thea’s Pumpkin Patch next year and hopes to continue growing and improving the family business.
