Five Treasure Valley Fall Stops, Priced Out and Mapped Before They’re Gone

BOISE, ID—October has a way of moving faster than expected, so @heyfrankli mapped out five Treasure Valley fall destinations with hours, prices, and locations included.

In Emmett, Tyler’s Orchard runs self-serve U-pick apples and plums daily through October 31, roughly 7am to 8pm, at $20 per five-gallon bucket (buckets and bags provided). Also in Emmett, Mumkin Fest runs Thursday through Saturday, noon to 7pm, through November 1, with horse-drawn carriage rides, face painting, farm games, and a pumpkin patch. Admission is $12 for ages four and up, free for kids three and under, or $36 for an unlimited pass.

Closer to Boise, Jordan’s Garden Center offers a free hay maze, petting zoo, corn pit, and a wide pumpkin selection—Cinderella, warty, minis, and more—Monday through Saturday 10am to 8pm and Sunday 10am to 7pm through October. In Meridian, Pumpkin Palooza adds carnival games, inflatables, a ninja warrior course, and train rides through October 31; admission is $5, with ride tickets at $1.50 each.

Out in Kuna, Lowe Family Farmstead is in its 30th anniversary season, with a corn maze, hayrides, a flower field, and jumping pillows through October 31—Monday through Thursday 4 to 9pm, Friday and Saturday 10am to 9pm.

Sundays are closed at Lowe Family Farmstead, so plan accordingly—Kuna traffic on a Saturday afternoon has its own seasonal character.
