Can I carve my pumpkin at the farm?

At present we are not able to offer pumpkin carving workshops at the farm as we do not have the facilities or staff available to assist.

What else is there to do?

There are loads of things to do when you visit us. Enjoy the traditional vintage musical organ, explore our spooky maize maze (there is a charge) have a browse in our Halloween shop with costumes, candles, home made soap and broomsticks. Play tin can alley and welly wanging (how far can you throw it!). Have a slice of pumpkin cake and a hot chocolate whilst the children enjoy the builders yard and mud kitchen. Plus take some brilliant Halloween photos with our Halloween photo opportunities.

Will the pumpkins last until Halloween if bought early?
If you look after your pumpkin it will last for weeks UNCARVED. Store them somewhere frost free with plenty of fresh air e.g. a shed, garage or outside. Once carved your pumpkin will last 3-5 days outside.
