Pumpkin Patch

PLEASE READ OUR NEW PROCEDURES AND RULES FOR PUMPKIN PATCH 2020

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions and after careful consideration and planning, we are opening our Manor Farm Fruits Pumpkin Patch (‘the Pumpkin Patch’) event BUT we have new procedures and rules to ensure both you and our staff are kept as safe as possible at all times.

PLEASE NOTE that under the UK Government’s ‘Rule of 6’ for England, no more than 6 people can gather/mingle together anywhere in the Pumpkin Patch unless they are from the same household/’support bubble’ and this includes ANY children. We will be monitoring this situation constantly during our Pumpkin Patch event.

As part of our wonderful Pumpkin Patch event, why not have a professional photo taken during Half Term? Make memories last with the fabulous Kirsty Whitaker Photography – she will be here between 26th and 31st October. Take a look here. 

You MUST book an online admission pass BEFORE you come to the Pumpkin Patch.

PUMPKIN PATCH EVENT:
This year, our Pumpkin Patch event will be open every day from Thursday, 15th October to Saturday, 31st October 2020 inclusive. Here at Manor Farm Fruits we have grown over 20,000 pumpkins of all shapes, sizes, and varieties to help make your Halloween celebrations extra special. Due to the ongoing restrictions of COVID-19, there will be limited activities for children this year, but we hope to offer our Straw Pyramids and Mazes for the children. Also, we will have a range of spooky merchandise on sale and along with a large outdoor seating area you will be able to enjoy a selection of drinks and snacks in a safe environment. Please note that there will be no bouncy castles open this year.
Pumpkin prices are available here.

ADMISSION PASSES:
Admission to the Pumpkin Patch will ONLY be via online pre-purchased admission passes for a chosen time slot. The link to book your session is below. This will allow us to control the number of people in the Pumpkin Patch. Admission is £2.00 per person which is non-refundable for any reason.
Admission passes for any booking will be limited to 6 people. Please note that this group of up to 6 people includes all walking children, disabled visitors, and carers. Toddlers and babies under 2 years old do not require an admission pass (but are counted towards the group of 6) PROVIDED they enter with an adult holding a pre-purchased pass AND the toddler/baby remains strapped into a push chair throughout the session. This is limited to one under 2 per booking.
To avoid congestion in the car park and during the new admission process, do not arrive more than 10 minutes BEFORE or 10 minutes AFTER your allotted time. We reserve the right to refuse admission, including early or late arrivals.

IN THE PUMPKIN PATCH:
Please use the hand sanitiser station before entering the Pumpkin Patch.
You will be directed by the Pumpkin Patch Wardens to the activities in the Pumpkin Patch and you will be asked to follow the new one-way system.
Our Pumpkin Patch Wardens will be on hand to help make sure people know where to go and to answer any questions.
Please always respect the social distancing rules and stay at least 2 metres away from other visitors and our staff.

AFTER YOUR SESSION:
After your session you are free to leave the Pumpkin Patch by following the one-way system back to the car park.
Please use the hand sanitiser station before getting back into your car.
Please leave the car park as soon as you have finished your session to avoid congestion in the car park.

OTHER RULES AND REGULATIONS:
Dogs – other than service dogs – are not allowed in the Pumpkin Patch or car park.

Due to the quite different procedures for our Pumpkin Patch this year, please carefully read our full terms and conditions here.
