About this Event
Running on Sat 17th, Sat 24th, Sun 25th, Thu 29th, Fri 30th & Sat 31st October 2026 with five 1 hour time slots available on each of the days, the first one being at 10:00. Please select your preferred date and time slot when booking.
What the ticket includes
- A tractor and trailer ride from the farm shop down to the pumpkin field and back.
- The pumpkin of your choice from amongst the hundreds that we have in the field to take home and carve.
- Hay bale photo booth for you to take the perfect family photo with your own freshly picked pumpkin!
- Ewes and new lambs on site too for you to visit.
We'll have mini tractors, trailers and plenty of wheelbarrows on hand to help you carry your pumpkins (or just to get muddy on!) and an enclosure for you to get up close to some of our ewes and young lambs from the farm.
With each ticket you will also receive a 10% discount voucher for the family to use in Lobbs Farm Shop and our very popular Farmhouse Kitchen Café up to the end of November 2026.
Tickets
Tickets are £10 per pumpkin picking child and children must be accompanied by at least one adult. Accompanying adults go free. As there is limited seating capacity on the trailer ride, we may have to limit places on the trailer to one adult per child or group of children. Additional adults are welcome to walk the short distance from the shop to the pumpkin field. Additional pumpkins can be purchased from the Farm Shop.
Parking for the event
If you haven't been to Lobbs Farm Shop or to one of our events before, just follow all the signs for the Lost Gardens of Heligan. Lobbs Farm Shop is signposted at the Lost Gardens entrance and there is a large car park adjacent to the Farm Shop itself.
This is now a Pay-On-Exit car Park but those attending the Pumpkin Picking will not have to pay for parking. When you purchase tickets you will be required to give the registration of the vehicle that you will attend in so that we can exempt you from the charges. You can always let us know if you change to a different vehicle between booking and your event date.
Please avoid parking in the parking area directly behind the shop.
There will be signage for an assembly point close to the shop entrance. Please arrive in good time for your booking or you risk missing the tractor & trailer ride to the pumpkins!
