Peterson's Farm
Rated in the top 5 best pumpkin patches in the San Francisco Bay Area in 2009. Praised as a good place to take small children for pumpkin picking for pumpkin picking by the Marin Mommies' site. (Thanks for your kind words!)

This Harvest Fair exhibit shows a sample of the many things we grow. We haven't had enough time to enter the fairs again. It was fun when the grandchildren were more available to pitch in but now they are older and have college and jobs to concentrate on.
Here's our toast to our family and friends that shared our
50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration in fall of 2009!

Located just north of Petaluma, California, this farm is in
the scenic historic countryside of Sonoma County. It was once one of the many chicken ranches Petaluma was famous for.
Directions from Highway 101:
Leave Highway 101 at the north end of town and go South on Petaluma Blvd. North. That will take you to Gossage Ave. Gossage Ave. is the next street after the Cinnabar Theater. Make a right turn.
Go up the hill to 636 Gossage Ave.

Every fall we grow a variety of pumpkins. Many are excellent for cooking.
The honey has been harvested now. It is lovely and tasty!
Call (707) 765-4582 or e-mail now to book fall school tours. E-mail is really the best as we are outside most of the day!
