Johnson Farms Plants and Pumpkins

If you’re anywhere near Belton come fall, Johnson Farms is just one of those places you end up going back to every single year. The kids burn through the slides, climbing structure, tunnels, and sandbox while you actually get a minute to breathe — and the play train is a genuine hit with the little ones. There’s a pond nearby that gives the whole place a slower, easy feel that’s hard to find at the bigger commercial operations. Pick your own apples and pumpkins, grab an apple cider slush, and you’ve basically nailed the fall Saturday. It works for all ages, which is saying something when you’re trying to wrangle grandparents and toddlers on the same outing.
