The Pumpkin Patch,
East Bergholt
TEMPORARY CLOSURE FRI 23rd OCT
Open again Sat 24th Oct
Due to the yellow weather warning that has been issued across the South East for Fri 23rd Oct, we have had to take the very difficult and upsetting decision to temporarily close our pumpkin patch on Friday 23rd Oct.
Due to the predicted high winds and poor weather conditions, we have been advised to close the patch for the day. Though we are heartbroken, we feel it is important to keep our staff, our coffee van and of course our wonderful pumpkin pickers safe.
We are really, really sorry to all those that had planned to visit us on Friday...we will be re-opening the pumpkin patch on Sat 24th Oct.
We look forward to seeing you all then.
thank you for your understanding and support.
