“Arrive at 10:00 am to grab the best parking spots before the midday crowd.”
McLean Farm's Pumpkin Festival is a one-day autumn celebration featuring outdoor activities and seasonal farm fun in Fuquay-Varina. What to Know: Admission to the festival is entirely free, making it an affordable option for a Saturday outing. The event runs from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm, which is ideal for toddlers who still need an afternoon nap. Parking is available on-site, but you should wear closed-toe shoes since you will be walking on uneven farm terrain. Bring some cash along in case you want to purchase pumpkins or treats from local vendors. This event is a smart weekend pick because it offers a relaxed, open-air environment where kids can burn off energy without a hefty price tag.
