pumpkin patch<\/a>, said: \u201cThe pandemic has really dried up a core bit of the business, which is apple juice and cider, so a lot of businesses and people have been struggling to make ends meet, and the project of pumpkins has been a big help with that.\u201d<\/p>\nThis is the first year of the Dunham pumpkin farm and is fully booked for the season. Jonny has been receiving 100 calls daily from families who have missed out.<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cPumpkin picking outdoors is one of the few activities that parents can do with children, and people of all ages can do to feel normal,.<\/p>\n
“I just think the act of getting outdoors this year is the key.\u201d<\/p>\n
Jonny believes Instagram may be a factor in the popularity of pumpkin picking.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s very bright, vivid orange pumpkins, which is very Instagrammable, it just creates nice pictures being in the field surrounded by orange pumpkins,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s an actual experience going on to the farm. They pay for the pumpkins they may buy some food, it\u2019s a great value for money day out.\u201d <\/p>\n
Finley Chadwick, who visited Cockfield\u2019s farm in Ashton, said: \u201cIt was wonderful. It was a really lovely atmosphere the staff were incredible and the people there seem really happy to be at the pumpkin patch.<\/p>\nFinley at pumpkin patch <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\u201cIt was my first time visiting a pumpkin patch. I will definitely be going to an event like that next year, where you go around picking a pumpkin and choose exactly which one you want I think it\u2019s a really cool idea.\u201d<\/p>\n
He usually celebrates Halloween by going out for a drink with his friends but has been unable to this year due to covid restrictions.<\/p>\n
Finley said: \u201cIt\u2019s normally more of a night-time event for me.<\/p>\n
“I never thought about making it a daytime thing as well, like going out and picking pumpkins.\u201d<\/p>\nPumpkin Carving is a popular Halloween tradition<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
