Outrageous Pumpkins Filming Locations
‘Outrageous Pumpkins’ was extensively shot in November 2019, on a sprawling farm in Long Island, New York. Located in southeastern New York State, stretching east from New York City, Long Island is a year-round tourist destination, especially for its beaches, vineyards, Gold Coast Mansions, shopping, and dining spots. Let’s find out more details about the filming site!
Harbes Family Farm, New York
Filming for ‘Outrageous Pumpkins’ was done on the Harbes Family Farm’s Barnyard. Harbes Family Farm & Vineyard is located at 715 Sound Avenue P.O. Box 1524, Mattituck, NY 11952. It is a 100-acre agricultural property located in the heart of Long Island’s North Fork. Three generations of the Harbes family have lived at and owned the farm since it opened over 30 years ago.
What originally started as a small farmstand has now evolved into a family-friendly destination that offers attraction like the 8-acre Barnyard Adventure featuring farm animals, a trike track, a sports zone, bounce pillows, and a wonderful hedge maze. Families with kids can enjoy hayrides, pig races and apple-picking.
There are fun things to do for adults without kids as well. As North Fork’s first certified sustainable vineyard, Harbes Vineyard offers wine-tasting sessions that feature the vineyard’s award-winning wines. During the festive fall season, the farm hosts pumpkin picking as well as the best corn mazes.
In terms of food, they offer a wide selection of fresh fruits and vegetables along with festive treats such as apple cider donuts, fresh chocolate chip cookies, home-baked pies, and sweet and salty kettle corn. The farm is also quite famous for its fresh-made ice creams and pure, raw honey.
