Top 3 Pumpkin Patches near Grand Junction
There’s a lot more to Fall than Halloween. This time of year is all about the harvest, and if you’re into that sort of thing, then it’s probably one of the best times of the year. Our team here at Carville’s Auto Mart put together a list of the top three best pumpkin patches within an hour driving distance of Grand Junction for an afternoon of fun with the family.

Saturday, October 29 – Civic Center Park in Fruita
If you’re headed in the opposite direction, Fruita is located just 20 minutes outside of Grand Junction as well. Those looking for a safe trick-or-treating alternative for their children may be interested in the Truck-N-Treat event at Civic Center Park in Fruita.

For those of you looking to get your dog in on the fun, this is the perfect event for you.
