opening of the pumpkin patch marks the beginning of fall activities in the Hays area.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been just a great day to come out, and especially for the kids to have this experience especially for Hays being a smaller town,\u201d FHSU professional advisor Jacob Chambray said. \u201cA pumpkin patch for the fall is just a good family event to come and see.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pa\u2019s is not only geared toward families; many Fort Hays students decided to take a look at what Pa\u2019s has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOne of my friends works at the pumpkin patch, so she invited us to come over to look at the pumpkins, go through the corn maze, and look at all the cute goats,\u201d said FHSU freshman Mitzil Carrillo-Maldonado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the season continues, Pa\u2019s Pumpkin Patch hopes to see another increase in visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cUsually our numbers keep going up and up, so hopefully we can keep seeing that,\u201d Cooper said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pa\u2019s Pumpkin Patch will remain open through Oct. 31. The patch is open Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Admission is $7. Visitors can find the pumpkin patch at 978 250th Ave.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Story by CIARA CEBALLOS-GUTIERREZ photos by EDEN STAPLES Tiger Media Network Pa\u2019s Pumpkin Patch, located south of Hays, opened up for the season on Saturday.&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":142,"featured_media":99539,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[3397,11],"tags":[16612,16630,16596,11357,15383],"class_list":["post-99593","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-area-news","category-news","tag-ciara-ceballos","tag-ciara-ceballos-gutierrez","tag-eden-staples","tag-pas-pumpkin-patch","tag-pumpkin-patch"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/tigermedianet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Pumpkinpatchopeningweekend-12-scaled.jpg?fit=2560%2C1707&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99593","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/142"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=99593"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99593\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":99596,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/99593\/revisions\/99596"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/99539"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=99593"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=99593"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tigermedianet.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=99593"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
