Find the harvest words in the patch. Find all 5 hidden words in a 7 × 7 grid. Words can run in eight directions, including backward and diagonally.

What this puzzle is about

Pumpkin Patch is an easy Halloween word search set among the vines. Five words are hidden in a 7 × 7 grid: PUMPKIN, VINE, HAY, SEED, and STEM. PUMPKIN is the longest word and the natural place to start.

Who it suits

It is a good first Halloween puzzle for younger solvers and families. The theme is autumn harvest rather than haunted houses, which keeps the mood gentle.

How to start

Find PUMPKIN first by scanning for P and U. Then look for VINE and STEM. Leave HAY and SEED until the longer words are marked.

About the words

The five words are PUMPKIN, VINE, HAY, SEED, and STEM. PUMPKIN is the only seven-letter word and fills a full row or diagonal when you find it.
