We are located two miles south and 1/2 mile west of the village of Arthur (pop. 2200). Our 63 acre pumpkin patch is in the middle of the largest Amish settlement in Illinois. The village of Arthur and the neighboring towns offer a variety of shops, dining and hotels.
Fall harvest will be underway on the rich east central Illinois farmland. We invite you to come, relax and share the beauty of it all.
