Pumpkin Picking And Pizza Come Together In New Jersey

A combination of pizza and fall fun. Sounds good to me! Pizza mixes with just about anything, so why not pumpkins, hayrides, and other seasonal favorites? I’m totally here for it.

After all, this is New Jersey, so it makes perfect sense to combine a pizza celebration with a fall celebration. A pumpkin spice latte and a slice of pepperoni go together just as well as some apple cider and a tomato pie!

Spend a fall weekend at Long Beach Township’s Harvest Hayride and Pizza Festival, where you can do a little pumpkin picking, all while enjoying a delicious slice and other pizza-themed foods.

The pizza festival was rescheduled to the same day as the Harvest Hayride, so they combined the two celebrations, making it “a slice of Fall FUN!” And I LOVE IT!

It’s a day of family fun with live music, kids’ activities, and so much more. It takes place October 24th from 12 pm to 4 pm at Bayview Park in Long Beach Township.
