#3 Goes to Demarest Farm. Demarest Farm is located in Hillsdale, NJ. at 244 Werimus Road. Activities at Demarest Farm include, pumpkin picking, apple picking, a corn maze, and face painting. What makes Demarest special is how massive its farm is. The farm is a half mile long!

At #2 is Abma’s Farm. Abma’s Farm is located in Wyckoff, NJ at 700 Lawlins Road. This farm celebrates fall with hayrides and pumpkin picking in September and October.

And the #1 spot goes to Stony Hill Farm which is located in Chester, NJ at 15 North Road 8 Route 24. They offer hayrides where you can pick your own pumpkins, but you also pick your own apples and strawberries.

There’s also a market where you can get some fresh produce and baked goods, flowers and plants.
