Halloween is right around the corner. Like most people across the country, residents of Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties are on the hunt for the perfect orange orb to adorn their doorsteps. Though it's a simple decoration, the jack-o'-lantern has come to symbolize the night we let down our hair and pretend to be someone (or something) else for a little while.

Like our apple picking post, we're providing you with an interactive map of all the orchards, patches and farms across the Hudson Valley that provide pumpkin-picking fun for the whole family. Click on the marker for the place's address, phone number, website and a special tip from Houlihan Lawrence.
