Tulleys Pumpkin Farm
One of the largest UK pumpkin festivals, Tulleys Pumpkin Farm has produced over 1 million pumpkins and gourds across 100 acres of farmland this year! There are a hundred varieties of pumpkins and gourds to choose from between the pumpkin patch and marketplace.
About an hour’s drive from South-West London, Tulleys Pumpkin Farm is located in Turners Hill, near Crawley in West Sussex. For 2024, Tulleys Pumpkin Farm will be open on selected dates from 28 September to 31 October.
We have visited several of the pumpkin patches near London and Tulleys Pumpkin Farm is one of our favourite places to go pumpkin picking. The main reason we enjoy pumpkin picking at Tulleys Pumpkin Farm is the large selection of pumpkins available across their expansive field
You’ll find pumpkins of all shapes and sizes out in the fields, and plenty more quirky pumpkins, squashes and decorative gourds heaped onto tables in the Pumpkin Village.

Make sure to bring your wellies for walking around the muddy pumpkin fields. There are plenty of wheelbarrows at the entrance to load your pumpkins into while out in the field. You can also use the wheelbarrow to carry the pumpkins out to your car. Keep some large carrier bags or a box to hold the pumpkins in your car.
Tulleys Pumpkin Farm also makes for a great family day out with the additional amenities that are on offer. There is an onsite food court and toilet facilities, plus many brilliant photo opportunities and roaming characters around the farm.

The cost of your tickets is not offset against your pumpkin purchases, unlike many other pick your own farms. Pumpkin prices start as little as £1 and go up to £25 for large ones. There are several signs at the pumpkin fields where you can measure your pumpkin and estimate the cost.
At the Tulleys Pumpkin Farm exit, you will find pumpkin carving supplies, Halloween decorations and home decor available to purchase. The cashier will measure your pumpkins to calculate the final price, and you can use the wheelbarrow to carry your pumpkins to your car.
