Celebrating 25 years of pumpkins and family traditions, Sinkland Farms is continuing their annual Pumpkin Festival. After starting as a small, family owned and operated festival, the event has grown so much that some people travel hours to visit. During the month of October, families, students and locals crowd the farm every weekend to take in the scenery and enjoy the many attractions the Pumpkin Festival brings. Sinkland Farms is open to the public on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sundays from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $10 for adults, $5 for children ages 2-16 and free for children under 2 years of age. Multiple clubs and organizations from the surrounding colleges, such as Virginia Tech and Radford University, visit the festival annually. Local elementary schools also make field trips to Sinkland Farms. Many local families have made it a tradition to attend every year; they have a fun-filled day and leave with their perfect pumpkins that they picked out themselves from the pumpkin patch.
