HINSDALE-CLARENDON HILLS, IL — Autumn officially started weeks ago in the Hinsdale-Clarendon Hills area, and that means it's time to start planning your family’s annual jaunt to the country to find the best pumpkins.

There are a few weeks left to pick out a great pumpkin for a Halloween jack-o'-lantern. Many pumpkin patches offer free activities such as hayrides, corn mazes and games for the kids.

Visiting an outdoor pumpkin field is moderately safe, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Before you go, it’s best to call ahead to the field or check its website for guidelines and hours of operation.
