Parking is free, and pumpkins will be priced according to individual size. Cash only. you cann't use checks or credit cards.

The Pumpkin festival has a lot of events.First you can go round the gardens by tractor. Its called "Hay Ride". You can go around around a cornfield, an onion field and a pumpkin field across a banana field. It is very interesting because you can enjoy the country feeling. Moreover you get off in a cornfield on the way and can do corn hunting. You need to pay $10, and you may obtain approximately 30 corn on the cobs. Particularly, this corn is said to be "Ewa Sweet" and is reputation because it is very sweet and yummy.Then there is a funfair. Finaly you can ride a horse, so it is the event that is popular among Hawaiian family companions.

If you have a time, I recommend you go there.
