Homer Glen, IL, USA (September, 2019): The latest Metallbau Emmeln project in North America opened at Bengtson Pumpkin Farm: Tractor Town – a gorgeously detailed farm-scape with a Tractor Ride system that takes guests through countless farm animatronics and a classic, red and white-trimmed barn. The Tractor Ride system seats two adults and two children and is (to date), the property’s largest investment.
Bengtson Pumpkin Farm, located southwest of Chicago, began as a family farm that grew into a beautifully themed experience with 11 rides, concessions, and a beloved local tradition: pumpkin picking.
The ride takes guests on a wonderful, scenic tour populated with several animatronics through a giant barn where families can enjoy a theme park quality ride set in a beautiful farm. The park’s colorful tractor rides proved to be a perfect fit for the family-friendly Bengtson Pumpkin Farm since children of all ages can ride with their parents.
Scott Bengtson, Manager at Bengtson Pumpkin Farm, is proud of the property’s newest attraction:
“This has been the single largest undertaking in the long and storied history of Bengtson Pumpkin Farm. The Metallbau team should be commended for delivering such a beautiful, high quality product. Everything on this project went smoothly, from timely delivery to installation to seeing our guest’s happy faces upon opening. We look forward to Tractor Town remaining a centerpiece of our facility for many years to come. In addition to quality of product, our team was beyond impressed at the level of customer service and support provided throughout the entire fabrication, shipping, and installation process.”
