Their passion for pumpkins and all things Halloween is contagious, and they're always eager to share their love for this special season with visitors of all ages.

Spilmans Pumpkin Festival

This year is HUGE, with a pumpkin farm harbouring over 125,000 pumpkins!! Pumpkin picking at Spilman's Farm is an adventure that sparks the imagination of both young and old.

This pumpkin field is filled with rows upon rows of pumpkins in all shapes and sizes, you'll feel like you've stumbled into the heart of a storybook pumpkin patch.

You'll find an array of actual pumpkin patches with beautiful pumpkin displays. You're sure to discover your favourite pumpkin here!

You might even be able to find a grey pumpkin or a ghost pumpkin (those are the white pumpkins!).

Then head to the carving barn to get really messy and creative! What spooky design will you carve out? Or are you looking to get all goofy and carve a funny face?!
