Pumpkin Carving at Brockholes
Guests select a pumpkin from a pretend patch set up with straw and hay bales on Brockholes' floating village. Carvers head inside to designated carving stations stocked with all necessary tools. Participants are served cookies alongside hot drinks or squash, and all pumpkin waste is composted and reused on-site to assist conservation work.
