Williams Family Farms Pumpkin Patch & Maze

Williams Family Farms in Wiggins, Mississippi, folds a maze, a kids maze, and a hayride to the u-pick pumpkin patch into admission, along with an animal barnyard, a farm playground, unlimited cow-train rides, and a jump pillow. Pumpkins, concessions, general-store goods, and gem mining are add-ons. The Rusty Rooster serves hot dogs, pulled pork, and nachos. The General Store has fudge, popcorn, snacks, slushies, and milkshakes, and the Sugar Mill Bakery bakes inside that store. Slick's Lemonade pours fresh lemon shake-ups and ice cream. Weekdays are held for school groups by appointment. The u-pick patch and the playground both close at dusk.

Our take: Eat at the Rusty Rooster if you want pulled pork, and take the hayride before the last departure so you still reach the u-pick patch.
