About Nottinghamshire 'Pick Your Own' Pumpkins

Pick-your-own pumpkin field near Southwell, open daily 17–31 October 2026 with free entry and tractor rides; pay only for the pumpkins you pick.

Our older description (written for a previous season)

This family-run business, which began 13 years ago with just 300 pumpkins, has steadily grown over the years, now offering thousands of pumpkins and ornamental squashes. Pumpkin picking reopens on Thursday, October 12th, 2023, with no need for booking and free admission. In the summer, they host the Sunflower Experience with over 40,000 sunflowers and offer various pick-your-own produce. Located in the Nottinghamshire countryside, they also feature a new Maize Maze for 2023. With family-friendly amenities, delicious food from Little Schnauzer Coffee Company, and free parking, it's an ideal outing for all.
