In addition to offering one of the largest pumpkin patches in Ventura County, the Pumpkin Patch at Limoneira Ranch is home to a 5.5-acre Corn MAiZE that has been featured on CNN, National Geographic, CBS, NBC, Discovery, People Magazine and more.
Pumpkin Patch visitors will also have the opportunity to enjoy delicious food, face painting, a petting zoo, pony rides, hay rides and pyramids, live music, crafts, games, and the famous Pumpkin Chucker.

“Every year, we strive to make our Pumpkin Patch bigger and better,” said Marilyn Appleby, president of the Rotary Club of Santa Paula. “After taking a year off due to the pandemic, we are excited to welcome the community back to our best Pumpkin Patch yet. We have plenty of tricks up our sleeves, and it’s sure to be a treat for all ages.”
The Pumpkin Patch attracts approximately 20,000 visitors from Southern California and beyond each year. To learn more, visit http://www.pumpkinpatchatlimoneiraranch.com.
Natural Reserve System Fall 2021 Virtual Seminar Series
We present an exciting opportunity to connect with the UC Santa Barbara Natural Reserve System through our second offering of a Fall Virtual Seminar Series! This year, the seven-part seminar series will kick off on Tuesday, October 5th, 2021, and each presentation will take place virtually, via Zoom, each Tuesday evening from 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm PT, ending on November 16, 2021.
The 2021 seminar series will showcase the latest programs and research across UC Santa Barbara’s 7 extraordinary Reserves. Each weekly seminar will focus on a particular Reserve and will feature a paired presentation with the Reserve’s Director - sharing highlights and updates from the Reserve - and an expert scientist or educator who focuses their research or teaching at that Reserve.
UC Santa Barbara operates seven Reserves within the 41-site University of California Natural Reserve System, the world’s largest network of protected lands dedicated to supporting research and education. UCSB’s Reserves are located in diverse ecosystems ranging from coastal (Coal Oil Point Reserve, Carpinteria Salt Marsh Reserve, Santa Cruz Island Reserve, and K.S.N. Rancho Marino Reserve) to inland valleys (Sedgwick Reserve), and to the Sierra Nevada (Sierra Nevada Aquatic Research Laboratory and Valentine Reserve). We hope that you’ll join us for this inside look at the UC Natural Reserve System.
Registration is free and is open now at nrs.ucsb.edu/events.
