About Pick your own Pumpkins at Millets Farm

Millets Farm has been nurturing a large number of pumpkins in their fields this year, and now’s the perfect time for picking a pleasingly plump one. Put on your boots and enjoy an autumn family day out picking your own pumpkins at Millets Farm Centre.

Once in the field, you choose the pumpkins you wish to take home with you and pay for them before leaving. Wheelbarrows will be available for you to use to transport your pumpkins to the exit desk.

This year, they have 3 different picking areas for you to choose from to find your perfect pumpkin. Come along and choose one to carve or cook!

Pumpkins/squash prices vary depending on the size and variety of the pumpkins. The prices will be advised at the entry to the pumpkin patch and again at the exit.

The patch will be Halloween-themed, with plenty of props and photo ops, whilst remaining suitable for a family audience.
