Pumpkin Picking at Poplars Farm

Two and a half miles from Nuneaton town centre, and you are on a family-run farm working 500 acres of Warwickshire countryside. That closeness is the point of Poplars Farm for a lot of local families: a proper working farm within a short drive of the town, rather than an hour out into the country.

Halloween 2026 at Poplars Farm opens on 3 and 4 October. After that first weekend the farm is open every weekend and on selected dates through October half term, running right through to Halloween itself, so there are several weekends to choose between rather than one crowded window.

Tickets are booked in advance through the farm's online booking page rather than bought on arrival, which is worth knowing if you were thinking of turning up on spec.

The rest of the site gives you a reason to stay a while. The Cow Shed Cafe is on site with its own opening times, as is the farm shop. Several other businesses share the yard as well, including a physiotherapy practice, a florist and a dog grooming service, so this is a working site rather than a field hired for October.

What the farm has not published is the detail. No session times and no ticket prices appear on its website or on its booking page, so both will need checking with the farm directly before you plan a day around the visit.
