A Nottinghamshire farm shop now has one of the best pumpkin picking patches in the UK. According to research by OutdoorToys, Maxey's Farm Shop near Newark is one of the top patches in the UK to visit this autumn.
"James would sit and wait for customers and then go to them once they had chosen and he would cut it off the plant with his gran’s cutters. We have expanded the growing area from there and also opened a new farm shop which is bigger than the original with an added restaurant."We are incredibly proud of what we have achieved as a family. We put a lot of effort and thought into the Festival from setting the seed in May right through to the opening in October.
Katharine added: "We get visitors from everywhere, the furthest we know about has been Grimsby. Our favourite thing is seeing the joy on everyone’s faces, whether it be children or adults. It appeals to all ages.
