Life as a SEN mum

I actually came across this when I was checking for the dates of their autumn markets. It’s completely new for 2023 and definitely worth a visit.

Sessions had to be pre booked, but we were there early and they happily let us in, there was a few other families there but it definitely wasn’t busy, maybe this was due to it being early in the season.

Before entering the pumpkin patch grab your wheelbarrow (there’s even little ones for young kids) and then start your pumpkin hunt. It’s not a huge field of pumpkins, but there were lots to pick from, and the focus is more on fun activities so the pumpkins are already pre picked and you can choose from any that are in the patch. There’s plenty of fair ground type games and even a wheelbarrow race which obviously Charlotte won.

After you’ve picked your pumpkins head through the spooky trail to help the help the witch with her spell, you might even get to help a certain witch find room on her broom for a few familiar friends.

There is a little “shop” with some Halloween goodies just as you pay for your pumpkins, and a little craft area where kids can decorate them, if they can’t wait to get home that is.

If you’re not visiting with children there are plenty of pumpkins in the nursery itself to choose from, as unlike some of the larger pumpkin patches this one is geared up for families.
