Celebrate the beauty of fall at the 35th Annual Sinkland Farms Pumpkin Festival. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Virginia's Favorite Fall Festival welcomes families from across the region for seven weekends at an award-winning pumpkin patch and corn maze with unforgettable farm fun.

This year's festival introduces America's Harvest Celebration, honoring 250 years of America's agricultural heritage, family traditions, and the spirit of the harvest. Throughout the festival, guests will experience America's Harvest Celebration through the traditions of farm life, live music, seasonal activities, local artisans, delicious food, and the simple joys of gathering with family and friends to celebrate the harvest season.

Recognized by USA TODAY's 10Best Readers' Choice Awards as the 4th Best Pumpkin Patch and 4th Best Corn Maze in the Nation in 2025, Sinkland Farms has become one of Southwest Virginia's premier fall destinations.

Makenzie Phipps performs from 1:00-4:00 PM.

Music talent has long run in the veins of viral country sensation, Makenzie Phipps. Following in the footsteps of her uncle, country music songwriter Ron Simons, Phipps has long been known as the little girl with the big voice in her home state of Virginia. But it is that talented little girl that has grown into a young woman whose talents shine brighter with each and every song she puts out.

From her viral covers of "I Want To Stroll Over Heaven With You" and "Amazing Grace" to her latest single "Drag", which was premiered in People and features in Cowboys & Indians, there is no doubt that this is just the beginning for Phipps within a music genre custom made for her voice, her sound, and her sweet sentiment.
