Another perfect event at The Farm Patch to get everyone together and have some fun!
We’ve been all about pumpkin picking since the very beginning. Back when we were ‘Country Pumpkins!’
As you may already know, we don’t just get a lorry load of pumpkins tipped on the grass, like some of the other patches. We take you back to the traditional experience, growing a huge range of pumpkin varieties for you to pick from right from the field.
There’s not just a single variety either! We also grow several special spooky pumpkins – like Knuckleheads, Crown Prince, Spitfire, Zombie, and Chucky. As well as the traditional favourite Harvest Moon.
There are also the extremely popular mini-pumpkins! Such as Jill be Little, Casperita, and Sweet Lightning. These are perfect miniature pumpkins for decorations and seasonal displays around the home.
All of our pumpkins are edible and very delicious too!

Each year we are open several nights for late night pumpkin picking. Late nights are announced closer to the time, as we aim to do on the nights with the best weather! We recommend bringing a torch, but we do have some lighting around the patch to help you find your perfect pumpkin.
