Harvest Festival

About

Celebrate autumn at Hartley Farm with a lovely family day out full of seasonal fun, from pumpkin picking and forest school to marshmallow toasting, face painting and a visit from Patty the Pumpkin.

We love autumn, and everything that comes with it; the smells, the colours, the crisp blue skies and the crunchy leaves underfoot. It's the perfect time to get the whole family outdoors and enjoying nature and we just love inviting you all here to do it.

By popular demand, the fabulous Patty the Pumpkin will be back at the farm too – she can't wait to meet all of our wonderful visitors! And of course, no event would be complete without a bouncy castle and our lovely face painter, Emma.

What's Happening?
There'll be plenty going on across the farm throughout the day, including:
Pumpkin picking and decorating – choose your pumpkin and get creative!
Forest school activities with Caz from Wildflowers Forest School
Apple pressing with Midford Cider
Marshmallow toasting
Face painting
Bouncy castle
Plus plenty more to discover around the farm.
It's a relaxed, family-friendly day with activities running throughout, so come along, explore the farm and enjoy a proper celebration of the harvest season.

Autumn Food & Drink
There'll be plenty to eat and drink while you're here too, with seasonal treats available around the farm alongside everything you'd usually find in the Farm Shop and Kitchen. It's also a great time of year to explore the shop, with autumn produce from the farm and our local suppliers filling the shelves.
