Patchen Tree Farm and Pumpkin Patch

About Us

Nestled in the beautiful Santa Cruz Mountains just minutes from downtown Los Gatos, Patchen Christmas Tree Farm & Pumpkin Patch is a family-owned and operated farm that has been creating memorable holiday traditions for Bay Area families since 1969.

Known for its picturesque mountain setting, Patchen offers a unique seasonal experience with both a Christmas tree farm and pumpkin patch. During the fall season, visitors can explore scenic redwood-lined trails, browse a wide variety of pumpkins and gourds, enjoy family-friendly photo opportunities with the farm’s vintage red truck, relax in the meadow picnic area, and experience the peaceful charm of the Santa Cruz Mountains.

In the winter season, Patchen transforms into a festive Christmas tree destination featuring fresh-cut trees in a wide range of varieties and sizes, including trees up to 25 feet tall. Guests can choose and cut their own tree, enjoy complimentary cider and wine tasting, visit the gift shop, and take part in seasonal events and photo opportunities.

Patchen is also committed to sustainable farming practices, using environmentally conscious growing methods and recycling programs that help preserve the beauty of the local landscape for future generations.

With its welcoming atmosphere, beautiful scenery, and longstanding local tradition, Patchen Tree Farm and Pumpkin Patch has become a favorite destination for families, photographers, schools, and visitors looking to experience the charm of the Santa Cruz Mountains throughout the holiday seasons.
