Aldor Acres Pumpkin Patch

October is one of Autumn's most festive months with Thanksgiving and Halloween offering a range of family friendly activities across British Columbia. Halloween means jack-o-lanterns, and jack-o-lanterns mean pumpkins! Aldor Acres in Langley, British Columbia is a family run farm which operates throughout the season - a dairy farm, apple farm, Christmas tree farm and in the Autumn, a pumpkin patch. The Pumpkin Patch offers visitors the opportunity to explore this working farm by visiting its many animals including pigs, goats, cows, chickens and rabbits, go on a hayride and take a ride to the pumpkin patch to find the perfect pumpkin for Halloween!
