About Us

Urban Gardens offers Kirksville and Northeast Missouri residents an authentic pumpkin patch, corn maze, and farm experience right within the city limits. The Bender family owns the land on which we grow pumpkins, gourds, corn, and other produce to sell at the farmer’s market.

Our mission is to bring kids and families together because Kirksville doesn’t offer many options for affordable family fun. We hope Urban Gardens can bring joy to kids, students, and parents alike. Every year, we try to add something new and fun to the pumpkin patch. This year, you’ll enjoy our new Gathering Building for rest and shade while the kiddos play. We hope to see you soon!
