It’s that time of year; the leaves are turning brown and the make-shift Halloween outfits are coming together and if it didn’t already feel like October, today is national pumpkin day! In celebration we’ve taken a look at some of the best patches for pumpkin in our region.
Horsforth Pick Your Own @ Kemps Farm
Horsforth pumpkin patch just off West End Lane is the place to go for the locals this year. Once you’ve chosen from their large selection of pumpkins on offer, buy yourself a kit and calve it on site! Or to really get into the spirit of things get some spooky face paint.
Swithens Farm
In the Rothwell area, head to Swithens Farm to dare to ride the scary tractor and venture into the haunted woods, before picking your pumpkin to be pimped out in their picnic area. Just £4 pounds will get you pumpkin calving, a tractor ride and experience in the haunted wood, a great trip out for the family.
Berts Barrow
In the village of Hillam in North Yorkshire, Berts Barrow is a North Yorkshire favourite when it comes to pumpkins. This year, Berts are exploring the world of carving. So grab the best looking pumpkin and head to the all-new carving barn to give it a personal touch.
