Agritourism & Farm Experiences near Davenport, IA

Donahue

Miss Effie's Country Flowers and Garden Stuff sits on 130th Avenue outside Donahue in Scott County, on the Iowa side of the Quad Cities region. As the name suggests, it's a flower and garden goods stop rather than a produce farm.

East Moline

Happy Hollow U-Pick has grown vegetables in the Quad Cities area since 1995. The fields yield asparagus, green beans, beets, blackberries, broccoli, carrots, sweet corn, cucumbers, eggplant, snap peas, peppers, and pumpkins, with the main picking season running early August through October. It's a working produce farm rather than an entertainment stop — bring a bag and expect to do the harvesting yourself.

Buffalo

Buffalo Pumpkin Patch doubles as an event center on Front Street, running pumpkin sales alongside a petting zoo, pony rides, and carnival-style rides through the fall. The event-center side means the grounds get booked for private gatherings too, not just walk-in pumpkin picking. Cash and check only per its business listing.

Donahue

Cinnamon Ridge Farms milks a Jersey herd through robotic milking systems on their Donahue dairy and turns part of that milk into artisan cheese made on-site. The farm has ranked first in the nation for milk production and sells cheese, beef, and raw milk through its farm store. Group tours run $17 per person, with youth and camp options by appointment.

Long Grove

Pride of the Wapsi runs a fall festival about 20 minutes north of the Quad Cities, built around a corn maze, wagon rides, and a working pumpkin patch with more than 30 attractions total. The farm keeps Friday-through-Sunday hours through October rather than staying open daily, so visitors plan around a weekend trip. It's grown into one of eastern Iowa's larger seasonal draws for pumpkin picking and hayrides.

East Moline

Shady Knoll Farm supplies the Quad City area with produce grown under organic practices, and the '1863' in their email address hints at how long the ground has been worked. The on-farm market sells fresh-picked vegetables year-round, with pumpkin and flower picking added once fall arrives. Hours run shorter on weekdays, noon to 6, and longer on weekends, 10 to 6.

Port Byron

Adventure Quest sits on roughly 54 acres of rolling Quad Cities-area prairie, with planted wildflower fields, pine and hardwood forest, hiking trails, and camping and picnic areas built for outdoor education and adventure programming. Unlike a typical pumpkin patch, it isn't open to the general public year-round — by most accounts it hosts one public weekend a year, with the rest reserved for group and school programs.

A family-run greenhouse in Illinois City, in the Quad Cities area, growing its own flowers, vegetables, and premium hanging baskets on-site since Maria and Chris McCalley started it from a single backyard greenhouse in 1995.

Princeton

The Amazing Haunted Maize Maze runs on Carter Farms' ground along the Great River Road outside Princeton, pairing a corn maze with a Halloween-season haunt. Specific hours and pricing aren't posted in any listing found — confirm current dates before making the drive up the Mississippi River bluffs.

Muscatine

Anderson Farm sits outside Muscatine along the Mississippi River in southeast Iowa. No independent listing describes current products, hours, or season — a call ahead is the best way to confirm before visiting.

Buffalo Prairie

Reason's Prairie Pride Meats has run a full-service meat locker in Buffalo Prairie for more than 70 years, custom-processing beef, pork, buffalo, lamb, seafood, and game. The property also runs Prairie Creek Market & Deli, with made-to-order sandwiches, soups, and salads, plus fruits and vegetables sold alongside the meat counter. Open six days a week.

Muscatine

Red Barn Pumpkin Farm is located on New Era Road outside Muscatine, near the Mississippi River. Current hours and contact information aren't published in any listing found — confirm before visiting.

Hillsdale

Geneseo

Strawberry Flats has grown blueberries and sweet corn on the same ground since 1979, though the name has outlasted the strawberries the farm started with. Visitors pick their own blueberries in July and August, or buy them already picked at the stand along with sweet corn pulled that morning. Call ahead before driving out — picking windows shift with the weather and how fast the bushes ripen.

Lowden

Lincolnway Flower Farm grows cut flowers along the Old Lincoln Highway in Lowden, in Cedar County in eastern Iowa. The farm takes its name from the historic road, one of the first transcontinental highways in the country.

Alpha

Country Corner sits along U.S. Highway 150 in Alpha, a small Henry County farm town. No website or business listing could be verified to confirm current products or hours.

Albany

The Pumpkin Ranch and Corn Maize runs a fall agritourism stop outside Albany, a small Mississippi River village in Whiteside County. Expect the seasonal staples the name promises — a pumpkin patch and a corn maze — though current hours and pricing aren't published online. Confirm details locally before visiting.
