Autumn is here, and that means it's time for Cox Farms' 31st annual fall festival. Fifty acres of fun, Cox' pumpkin patch is at 15621 Braddock Road in Centreville and is a veritable fantasy land ...

Built about 100 years ago, the structure was once a dairy barn, Cox Farms said. Although old, "it served us well, and it has been a sturdy (and beautiful) backdrop for decades," the farm's post said.
