Farrington's Pumpkin Picking Festival 2026

Visitors grab a wheelbarrow to explore Farrington's 20-acre field and pick from more than 50 varieties of farm-grown pumpkins, squashes, and gourds surrounded by themed displays. In the Witch's Wood, guests can meet Whinny the Witch around her flaming cauldron to toast marshmallows, or head to the carving marquee to create jack-o'-lanterns. A mini pop-up funfair in the garden offers classic rides and traditional games for additional festive cheer.

Tips & Advice

  • Wear wellies, long trousers, and long-sleeved tops, as the field can get muddy and the patch is not sprayed for weeds.
  • Tickets must be booked in advance, but you are welcome to arrive early to visit the farm shop, cafe, or playbarn before your field slot.
  • Wheelbarrows are available to borrow on site to transport your harvest, subject to availability.
