In the United States, visiting pumpkin patches in autumn has become a traditional activity for many families. This phenomenon reflects Americans' love for the autumn harvest, family gatherings, and rural life. Pumpkin patches are usually located on farms or orchards and offer various entertainment activities such as pumpkin picking, photography, hayrides, and corn mazes, creating a warm and festive atmosphere.

The rise of this phenomenon is related to American society's emphasis on family values and its yearning for returning to nature and getting closer to rural life. Pumpkin patches have also become an excellent place for photography enthusiasts and social media users to showcase their family happiness, further fueling the trend.

However, some criticize this phenomenon for being too commercialized, with high pumpkin prices and a lack of creativity and attractiveness in some pumpkin patch activities. Despite this, the pumpkin patch, as a unique autumn cultural experience, still holds an important position in American society, attracting countless families to participate.
