The pumpkin fields are at their fullest at the start of the picking season in September – blooming in colour and often dryer underfoot. It is also much quieter in September and the first few weekends in October, as well as Half Term. Later on in October, the farm is much busier but your pumpkins are more likely to last until Halloween.
