Bode's Moonlight Gardens offers pick-your-own pumpkins from the patch, or choose from the selection we have picked and waiting for you in our shop. We raise 60 different varieties of pumpkins, gourds and squash, featuring a wide range of specialty pumpkins, mini-size pumpkins and gourds, winter squash, pie pumpkins and, of course, nice big orange ones for carving!
Paying for your pumpkins
Bode's Moonlight Gardens is a little old-fashioned when it comes to financial transactions. Cash and checks are accepted. At this time, no debit cards, credit cards or venmo are accepted.
Visit the farm
There is no fee to visit our farm. We offer a pick-your-own patch in a natural farm setting. Visitors are also welcome to take a stroll through our quarter-mile trail through the woods while they are here, and take all the photos they want. A restroom is available for use. Special events do happen on specific days - be sure to follow us on Facebook for updates!
Farm Hours
Our farm is open on Saturdays (10-4) and Sundays (12-4) through the month of October. Other times available by appointment, if needed.

Our Pumpkin Patch - Continuing a Tradition
Many people in the Algona and Kossuth County area enjoyed a fall tradition of going to Scuffham's Gardens to pick pumpkins. John and Helen Scuffham have retired their pumpkin patch, and encouraged us to open our own. We are thankful for the help and guidance they have provided to us over the past several years as mentors, neighbors and friends.
