The Huntley College of Agriculture Presents the 2023 Cal Poly Pomona Pumpkin Fest
The Cal Poly Pomona Pumpkin Fest is back for its 30th year!
For 30 years, the Huntley College of Agriculture at the university has organized this event for the community. From a humble patch by the side of the road where people could cut their own pumpkins off the vine, the festival has grown into a month-long series of events and activities. It has drawn as many as 120,000 visitors in October, making it one of the largest events in the entire California State University system.
The Huntley College grows 40,000 pumpkins, two corn mazes, and a sunflower field, and brings a petting farm to the festival. Visitors can also play games, enjoy hay rides, listen to live music, and observe displays and demonstrations from Huntley College student clubs and agriculture-related organizations. Food and drinks are available to purchase from vendors.
You'll find all the information you need to plan your visit to our pumpkin patch. We hope to see you here and that you have a great time!
