Whether they end up gracing a porch, or a pie, is up to the person who finds and purchases the ideal gourd.<\/p>\n<p>But will you dress up your pooch as a pterodactyl? Will your terrier show up at Hana Field in T. rex mode?<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not required, but securing <a href=\"https:\/\/tanakafarms.ticketspice.com\/hana-field-in-costa-mesa-pumpkin-patch\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">your admission<\/a> ahead of time is a good idea.<\/p>\n<p>As is perusing all of the homespun fun at Hana Field; those good times include the Jurassic Fright corn maze, wagon rides (yay, they&#8217;re unlimited), and the Barnyard Educational Exhibit.<\/p>\n<p>Hana Field is helmed by the Tanaka Farms team, but do note: You&#8217;ll want to head to 427 Anton Boulevard in Costa Mesa, not Irvine where Tanaka Farms is located.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What to Know Dogs &amp; Dinos at Hana Field Costa Mesa Nov. 8 and 9, 2025; 10 a.m.&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":360599,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5123],"tags":[1582,276,38996,2961,224,5337,7926],"class_list":{"0":"post-360598","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-california","10":"tag-costa-mesa","11":"tag-la","12":"tag-los-angeles","13":"tag-losangeles","14":"tag-pets"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115504739261683484","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/360598","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=360598"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/360598\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/360599"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=360598"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=360598"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=360598"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
