So grab a wheelbarrow and explore the fields to pick the perfect pumpkin! Whether you want to cook or carve we have all sorts of shapes, sizes and colours to choose from.

Everyone who wants to enter the patch must have an admission ticket, with the exception of toddlers and babies under 2 years old who do not require an admission ticket and may enter free of charge with a full paying adult.

Homegrown Pumpkins
Our pumpkins are grown right here at Millets Farm. If you visit us early in the season then you will still see the stalks from where they had grown. As we welcome thousands of visitors through each year, the patch is then topped up with homegrown pumpkins that have been grown in other parts of the Millets Farm site. This ensures that there is always a supply of plump, healthy pumpkins ready for our customers to pick and take home with them from our events.
Other useful information:
- Pre-booking required. If we are sold out we will not be allowing walk-in customers
- Halloween merchandise and pumpkin carving kits can be purchased at our Pumpkin Patch and within the Farm Shop

However, assistance dogs are permitted in all areas, and we politely request that they wear appropriate signage to help both our team and other customers understand their need to be there.
