About Old Hall Farm
Old Hall Farm is a working dairy farm at Woodton, known for its Jersey milk, butchery and farm restaurant. It is a genuine farm destination, with animals to see and a cafe and shop on site, and the October pumpkin patch fits naturally alongside its family-friendly offering.
Pumpkin Picking at Old Hall Farm
The pumpkin patch is a walk-up pick-your-own, open across October including weekends and half-term, where you choose your own pumpkins to take home. It pairs well with the rest of the farm, so you can combine picking with a visit to the animals, the cafe and the shop. As with any October patch, it is open farmland, so wellies are worth having.
Things to Do on the Day
- Pick-your-own pumpkins from the patch
- Farm animals and a bale mountain for children
- Farm shop and butchery
- Cafe and restaurant on site
Opening Times & Prices
The pumpkin patch runs across October, including weekends and the half-term week (in 2025 it ran on selected weekend dates and through half-term, roughly 10am to 4:30pm). No ticket is needed; you pay for the pumpkins you pick. The dates for the coming season had not been published at the time of writing, so check the farm before travelling.
