Every year, my family and I look forward to attend the Tanaka Farms Pumpkin Patch with Hello Kitty & Sanrio Friends. The Tanaka Farms Pumpkin Patch took pumpkin patch to another level of cuteness. Tanaka Farms, a family-owned farm, was established in 1940 and has been dedicated to provide all families with high quality produce while promoting the importance of healthy eating and practice responsible farming and agricultural. Enjoy wagon ride, petting zoo, corn maze, u-pick veggie and photo ops with Hello Kitty, Keroppi, Chococat, My Melody and Pochacco. Tanaka Farms Pumpkin Patch runs from September 21, 2019 through October 31st, 2019.

Hello Kitty Entry Package
New to this year is the special Hello Kitty Entry Package that includes admission, wagon ride, and Barnyard Educational Exhibit, plus your choice of a Limited Edition Hello Kitty + Tanaka Farms gift for $20.00 per person. This saves up to $10 per person and can only be purchased upon entry or advance online. For the Limited Edition Hello Kitty + Tanaka Farms gift, you can select either plush, mug, canvas tote bag, button set or enamel pin while supplies last. I was disappointed that the mug and canvas tote bag were no longer available. However, the plush, button set and enamel pins were cute and my kids wanted to collect all of them.
