Overstone Grange Farm Pumpkin Picking
Guests can explore a 30-acre patch to harvest 90 varieties of pumpkins, squash, and gourds directly from the field where they grow using borrowed wheelbarrows. The farm also features a living maize maze to navigate, scenic autumnal photo spots like a vintage tractor and giant deckchair, and a large play patch with a bale tower, sandpits, and lawn games. On-site refreshments include burgers, baked goods, and giant marshmallows for toasting, with an optional pumpkin cannon target game.
