Celebrate Summer’s bounty at the annual Pumpkin Festival.
This special day includes a host of activities for adults and children including storytelling sessions, face painting, craft activities, talks, and live music.
The Grand Pumpkin & Squash Competition takes centre stage this year and will be judged by local resident and renowned gardener Charles Dowding.
Locals are invited to bring along their own home grown pumpkins, gourds and squashes to enter into the categories for the ‘Heaviest Pumpkin’ and ‘Best in Show: Squash or Pumpkin’, each with a £500 cash prize.
The winner of the ‘Misfit’ category will receive a goody bag.
All competition entries must arrive on site by noon. Entries are accepted on the day or you can enter the competitions online here.
Onsite restaurant Roth Bar & Grill will be serving seasonal food throughout the day, as they harvest their wide variety of squash from their kitchen garden.
