School is back in session, the air is getting crisper, and college students have returned. Fall is officially here, and it is one of the best times to visit and explore Greenville-Pitt County! There is no shortage of things to do, hidden gems to discover, and trails to hit. Greenville-Pitt County is a perfect fall getaway, or stay-cation for all!
Fun on the Farm
Looking for pumpkins to carve? Corn fields to get lost in? Hayrides for a little fall joy? Then Pitt County is the place for you!
Find classic fall fun at Stokes Family Farm, featuring a petting zoo, playground, and hay ride! Or explore the expansive corn maze at Briley’s Farm Market on their scavenger hunt! Take home pumpkins from both of these adventures and check jack-o-lantern carving off your fall bucket list in the same trip!
