The Primrose Value Farm Shop and PYO are returning this year for their ever popular Halloween trail, and new for 2021 they are also offering Pumpkin Picking!

The two activities can be combined on the same day, but please be aware the main road bisects the two sites.

Primrose Vale Halloween Trail

The trail opens from 22nd October until 31st October.

The pandemic has given us lots of opportunities to look at how we do things, so there will be a few changes.

The trail is ticketed. Tickets must be purchased in advance for specific time slots. In 2019 we reached capacity more than once and customer experience was diminished – timed tickets will eliminate this, plus keep numbers on the farm at sensible levels.

The trail is suitable for children of all ages, but most enjoyed by those between 3 and 15, our trail takes you around the farm to discover various challenges, tasks and puzzles.  It’s a great way to spend a few hours, out in the fresh air over the half term – and there’s even a small treat at the end!

We have thousands of home grown pumpkins for sale too at the shop. (for our separate PYO Pumpkin event see below)

Hot drinks and light refreshments will be available from the Potting Shed Cafe, with seating in our marquee.

Time : Halloween Farm Trail from 9am – 4pm (last entry) – Shop open from 9am – 5pm

Sorry, no dogs permitted on the trail or the pumpkin fields.

Primrose Vale Pumpkin Picking

fter the success of last year’s PYO pumpkin experience, we are running a separate ticketed option to enter our PYO fields and pick a pumpkin. There is a charge to enter, (also ticketed , timed entry) but the cost will be redeemable in pumpkins – in contrast with some other farms! Wheelbarrows are available for hire, and you can get a few photo with our giant pumpkin!

Our Pumpkin Field is located to the East of the A46 Shurdington Road, on THE OPOSITE SIDE OF THE ROAD FROM THE FARM SHOP. Parking is available there – Please watch for signs on approach.

Pumpkin picking will be subject to availability (which is looking good this year!) Just be aware if booking early for a later date, we aim to run out on the 31st, so don’t leave picking too late!

The pumpkins are where they grew – that means straggly vines, soil, and some weeds too. Come prepared – vines can have prickles, and there may be a few small nettles in patches – so gloves are highly recommended!

Sorry, no dogs permitted on the trail or the pumpkin fields.
