Be sure to dress for the weather and wear shoes that are appropriate for walking in our fields. Pumpkin plants and stalks are prickly so long pants and closed toed shoes are highly recommended.
We are pet friendly. Dogs are welcome to come visit our farm, but please ensure they are kept on a leash. Also, please help us keep a clean place for all to enjoy and clean up after your dog.

Late August to September is a great time to pick pumpkins in Nova Scotia! Getting them to last until Halloween is a matter of curing them properly, which is very easy to do (see “Curing Pumpkins” above). I keep pumpkins in my basement from September to April every year, because our family loves pumpkin muffins!
We are only accepting cash at this time..
Yes we are! Dogs are welcome to come visit our farm, but please ensure they are on leash in case any of our other guests are fearful. Also, please help us keep a clean place for all to enjoy and clean up after your dog.
One of our guests shared a great treatment to prevent pumpkins from rotting. Scrape out the soft spot and get it down to hard flesh. Smear the scrape with honey and allow it to dry. The antibacterial properties of honey will allow the pumpkin to form an scab and prevent it from rotting! If the spot remains after the first treatment, repeat the steps until a scab forms.
Unfortunately due to COVID-19 we will not be having any picnic tables or games available this year.
We have a few picnic tables for families to use, a straw bale pile for children to play on, and some free games like tic-tac-toe and a bean bag toss..
A wagon is a good idea, shoes or boots suitable for a country walk, water and other snacks as we have no concession on site. Pumpkin plants and stalks are also quite prickly so long pants and closed toed shoes are highly recommended.
