Guest Agreement

The Pumpkin Patch in the Grove at Cordle Family Estates, October 24 and 25, 2026

Guest Acknowledgment, Assumption of Risk and Release

Agritourism warning. Under Florida law, an agritourism operator is not liable for injury or death of, or damage or loss to, a participant in an agritourism activity conducted at this agritourism location if such injury, death, damage, or loss results from the inherent risks of the agritourism activity.

A working farm. I understand the Grove is on a working farm, with uneven ground, hay, pumpkins, farm equipment on display, insects, changing weather and evening lighting.

Staying in the grove. I will keep my group within the lit, marked area of the grove and the guest parking area. The rest of the farm, including the family's home, farm buildings, trails and work areas, is closed to guests.

Honey and bees. Honey and honey products are sold on the premises, and the estate keeps bees. Honey must not be given to children under 12 months old. I am responsible for any food allergies in my group and will check before eating. Anyone with a bee-sting allergy should carry their own medication.

Fire. An open-flame fire will be lit. I will keep my group, and especially children, outside the fire ring and follow staff directions.

Farm equipment. Tractors and other farm equipment are parked for display and photos only. No one may climb or sit on them. I will supervise my children around them at all times and follow posted signs and staff directions.

Supervising children. I am responsible for supervising the children in my group at all times, everywhere on the property, including at the fire, the games and the photo areas. Children may not be left unattended.

Photo areas and activities. The swing is a photo seat, not a ride. Pumpkins can be heavy. Wagons are for pumpkins, not for children to ride in. The corn pit holds loose dried corn, which is a choking hazard for young children, so I will stay with my children while they play in it. I will use games, wagons and photo areas at my own risk and follow posted rules.

Driving and parking. I will drive slowly on the farm road, follow the parking crew and stay on marked paths.

Photos and video. The event will be photographed and filmed, including by invited local creators. I consent to appearing in photos and video that Cordle Family Estates may use for promotion, without compensation or a right to approve them.

Guest rules. This is a pet-free event (service animals welcome), with no outside alcohol and no smoking near hay or the fire. Gates close to new arrivals at 8 PM. Tickets are non-refundable. Staff may remove anyone who doesn't follow the rules, without a refund.

Assumption of risk and release. I voluntarily assume the inherent risks of attending, for myself and the minors in my group, and release Cordle Family Estates LLC, its owners, family members, employees, contractors and volunteers from claims arising from those inherent risks, to the extent permitted by Florida law.
