Join Us for the Pumpkin Patch & Fall Festival at Alpaquita Ranch!
You don’t want to miss this year’s Pumpkin Patch & Fall Festival at Alpaquita Ranch! On September 13th and 14th, 2024, we’re kicking off the fall season with an unforgettable two-day event packed with music, food, vendors, alpacas, and more!
Last year, one of the best compliments we received was, “It felt like we weren’t in the RGV.” We’re bringing that magic back this year by transforming our 10-acre farm into a pumpkin paradise, filled with an incredible variety of pumpkins in all shapes, colors, and sizes. With countless photo ops and over 70 alpacas, you’re sure to capture some Instagram-worthy moments. A viral vlogger even called us the most “Instagrammable farm” in the area!
