"Fall" in love with Pumpkin Hollow

In 1992, Ellen and Darrell Dalton decided to use a portion of their family farm to create Pumpkin Hollow, which featured Arkansas’s first corn maze. Now, 26 years later, Pumpkin Hollow, located near Piggott in St. Francis, has grown into one of Arkansas’s largest fall attractions.

In addition to the corn maze and the pumpkin patch, there are activities for all ages. For the youngsters, there are pony rides, pig scrambles (one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen!), the Kids’ Barn, the Friendly Forest, barrel train rides, pond slides and the Country Bumpkin Playground. The entire family will enjoy the hay rides, picking out the perfect pumpkin to take home, and tasty treats such as pumpkin rolls made from Pumpkin Hollow pumpkins! Spending a fall day at Pumpkin Hollow has become an autumn tradition for families from throughout the region.
