First time visitor. I was not sure what to expect during the pandemic. I was pleasantly surprised that entry fees were discounted this year due to the fact that they couldnt have any indoor activities. (We werent interested in indoor stuff anyway...we wanted fresh and and fun.) Great stuff for the whole family to do. Wagon ride, corn maze, bounce pillows, barrel train, fun photo ops, picnic areas and KETTLE CORN! Well be back next October.

I purchased over two dozen chicks from Uncle Bill’s this season over the course of several weeks. Heidi is PHENOMENAL. So helpful, knowledgeable and friendly! She is quick to respond to any questions I’ve had, and always rejoices with me over chicky milestones in my flock. She is a wealth of knowledge, and gives that info out freely! I am a veterinary technician and office manager...these are great people breeding WONDERFUL, healthy, show quality birds! Don’t hesitate to buy Uncle Bill’s chicks! I have nothing but great things to say!

Ive been driving up and buying my silkie chicks from Uncle Bills in Iowa for several years. I show silkies and have won a good number of ribbons and trophies with their line of silkies. These people know their poultry, poultry health and genetics are gladly share their knowledge with customers. They breed and sell more than just silkies. Many other breeds. Check them out. Youll be glad you did.

The kids and I always enjoy this pumpkin patch. Lots of fun things for all ages in the family to do. Wagon rides, visit the farm animals, the playground, delicious food, magic shows on weekends, and more. I love that one admission price pays for all the activities there. We also really enjoy the quality of the rare poultry they sell. Over the years, Ive won quite a few ribbons and trophies for the birds Ive purchased from Uncle Bills Farm. I highly recommend this place!

This family fun atmosphere is nestled in the country but easy to access. Enjoy an afternoon of corn mazes (mini and big), adorable goats, colorful chickens, games, rides, an entertaining magic show, and delicious pumpkin flavored treats - even Cajun food. Dont forget to take a ride to the pumpkin patch to pick your pumpkin. A great way to spend a Fall day with your family and little ones!

My kids range in age from 3 to 9 and they all think Uncle Bills Pumpkin Farm is the best! The magic Show is always very entertaining. Taking a hayride to pick your pumpkins, the jumping pillows and corn maze truly make this an unforgettable experience for the whole family.

I absolutely LOVE this pumpkin farm!!! My family drives from Des Moines every year without fail! There is so much to do! The magic shows are fun and engaging, the food is amazing, and the staff couldn’t be friendlier. There are cute little goats, bouncing pads, corn mazes, and activities for all ages. Uncle Bill always has the biggest smile and warm hugs for his guests and it’s truly a family experience we would never miss. You would be insane to miss out on this experience!!!

Uncle Bill’s Farm is a great place to go for a family outing. With its corn maze, pumpkin pads, tree house, working miniature train rides, and hay rack rides there is something for our entire family to enjoy. All of the staff is friendly, helpful and great with kids. If it gets too cold you can go inside to the barn for hot cider, crustless pumpkin pie and a magic show. We look forward to going to UncleBill’s every year.

These people sell the most amazing chickens. The silkies I buy from them always earn awards at the poultry shows. The owners are so incredibly knowledgeable about chickens. Always great service after the sale too. This is also the only place Ive been able to find imported German Totleger (Deathlayer) chickens at a fair price. If you want nice, healthy poultry, check Uncle Bills Farm out.

This is now our familys favorite pumpkin patch in Iowa. The kids enjoyed the big orange bouncer pillows, farm animals, magic shows and mazes. My wife and I like that paying admission covers everything except pumpkins and snacks. Well be back in the spring to buy the kids some chicks from the rare poultry they sell.

What a great place to take your kids in the fall for some fun. Just as great to take them there to buy their 4H project chicks. Nice, healthy chicks that have taken home a lot of trophies and ribbons. I highly recommend checking them out.

Review №77

It was just boring. like for me cause there wasn’t very many things for teens to do and everything had signs that said “ no adults” and it was just boring. also they didn’t have hay rides when i went and on the website it says that your admission fee covers everything, but it actually doesn’t. you still have to pay for the pumpkins and stuff. i think they should add more adult things and teen things to it but other than that it’s a great kid friendly place.

We enjoy taking our niece to Uncle Bills farm every fall, and watching her explore all the different things she can do; from petting the animals, riding the trains, the corn pool, bouncing mats, to picking the pumpkins from the field. We all enjoy our time that we get to spend at the farm at every visit, and will continue to go every year!

Review №88

There was little to nothing to do for adults and we left after the first time when they said they weren’t doing wagon rides and then when we came back a week later they still weren’t doing them. We didn’t feel very welcomed and most things cost money after your admission fee. Fine place to go if you have small children and have some extra cash.

Absolutely the best place in the USA to buy your show poultry! My wife loves showing the silkie chickens she buys from Uncle Bills Farm. Were looking forward to our kids being old enough to show birds from there too. We bought ten German Totleger (Deathlayer) chicks from there a few weeks ago and are over the moon about how great they are. Healthy, happy and growing fast. My family highly recommends buying rare and show poultry from Uncle Bills.

If I could rate this place a zero I would.. for one the lady working in the kitchen is not respectful at all seems to have a attitude and didnt even greet my family. For two they had apple cider but she said it was cold who wants to drink cold apple cider? And to top it all off its not even a pumpkin patch you have to drive on a wagon and be left just to pick pumpkins this is the worst place ever I dont see how so many people enjoy it!!
