Where to go pumpkin picking this Halloween!
Pumpkins! Who adores these? We do!
It’s that time of year again of sharpening your best carving irons! But first, where to go for the most rustic, authentic, DEVILISH but yet finest variety of pumpkin???
Before you go pencilling a mad dash to Aldi on October 30th, why not schedule a pumpkin date!
We happen to be BLESSED with some of finest farms in Edinburgh and surrounding areas! Plus what better than to make a day out of it with the kids?
What better way to get into the spooky season spirit?
Yeah, I know these pumpkin pow wows sell out like hot cakes….that’s why I’ve added some alternative places to go to. If you don’t mind driving further afield then why not make a day of it?
Grab your pumpkin slot and see more of beautiful Scotland. Ideal! Perfect.
