Everyone loves pumpkin picking, don’t they? It’s something that is on so many calendars, something families look forward to and that children get excited about for months. It’s one of our favourite things about autumn and I’ve been researching more places we can go pumpkin picking in London.
When is pumpkin picking season?
Pumpkin picking season in the UK officially stretches from October to December but, traditionally, it’s something we only do in October. It usually starts right at the beginning of October with places allowing you to pick pumpkins all the way through half term and up until Halloween.
Why should you go pumpkin picking?
Pumpkin Picking is a fantastic family activity and a great way of getting outside during the autumn and having classic family fun. Plus, you can spend time together carving pumpkins or making pumpkin treats in the kitchen afterwards! Pumpkin picking is such a tradition – a great outdoor event and definitely something to add to your plans this October.
Many pumpkin picking locations also have other seasonal activities to enjoy – full on pumpkin festivals, roaming characters, a huge variety of photo opportunities, maize mazes and more so definitely think about going to a pumpkin event this year.
