Norris Amusement, San Diego

Historically, pumpkin patches only grow gourds and fancy carriages that disappear after one night. But that's not the case at Norris Amusements—the family-run pumpkin patch sprouts magical experiences that last nearly all year. The original San Clemente location opened for the Halloween season in 2001, and it wasn't long before the patch spread its roots to multiple locations and across multiple seasons. Today, Norris Amusements' grounds serve as pumpkin patches in the fall, as Christmas tree farms during the winter, and as inflatable playgrounds during the summer.
