Central Christian Church
This one has been "Waco's pumpkin patch" since 2006, and it's still going strong! Central Christian Church pumpkin patch has an excellent pumpkin patch.
I like this one a lot because it's more of a "pumpkin patch" than a "fall festival," so it's an easy option for stopping by, taking some photos, and buying some pumpkins to bring home for your own front porch. Proceeds go to support excellent causes - a huge win!
