[Note: This map was originally published in October 2016 and has been updated.]

Sure, the temperature's still fluctuating, as it does, but there are plenty of signs around us that fall is here.

We would refrain from mentioning a certain disgustingly spiced beverage that, sadly, invades our national cuisine every year around this time, except for the fact that it reminds us that it's the season to enjoy the bounteous goodness of actual, real-life pumpkins.

Sure, you could just grab one (or several) on your way out of the grocery store, but where's the fun—and hard work—in that? We've put together some of the best pumpkin-pickin' spots in the Austin region and mapped them.

We'll be adding to the map guide as more places open, in the meantime, tell us about ones we've missed or that are opening up soon on the tipline or by leaving a comment below. Now to the map!
