COOL RIDGE --  A Raleigh County pumpkin farm is a tradition for families across our region. The Okes Family Farm in Cool Ridge has two corn mazes and a field full of pumpkins.

Each weekend, workers host a different activity for adults and children.

This Saturday crews will be making apple cider.

Next weekend, kids will be encouraged to paint the pumpkins they pick out.

The Okes Family says they host every kind of group from school field trips to family outings.

The farm is open every weekend, now through Halloween.

"If you haven't been here before you really need to come out and see what we're doing. The kids have a great time and it's a lot cheaper than taking them to the movies and it lasts a lot longer," said Jennifer Okes, farm owner.

The farm is open every weekend, now through Halloween; Saturday 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday noon to 6 p.m.
