About

This autumn, get your wellies on and head down to Forge Mill Farm to pick your own perfect pumpkin. 

We have special pumpkin picking event days where you can visit your favourite animals at our farm, then grab your wheelbarrow and head to the pumpkin field. While you are here, grab some super cute photos and climb up our bale tower to get an awesome view. 

Take your pick from lumpy to lovely or from wrinkly to plumpy, we have thousands of pumpkins to choose from, so you are sure to pick your perfect pumpkin!

Whether you want to make pumpkin soup, carve a spooky face or accessorize your house, there is a pumpkin for everyone. Pay for your pumpkins on your way out then grab a wood-fired pumpkin pizza and a hot drink from the farmers pantry.
