In this episode, we dive into the delightful, sometimes chaotic, but always memorable life of running a pumpkin patch at Foxes Farm Produce. It’s a family-run business with heartfelt anecdotes, funny moments, and reflections on how the patch has grown over the years.
The Foxes Farm pumpkin team recall early memories, like Guy’s mother-in-law running the Colchester patch single-handedly, greeting visitors like old friends. They also share amusing tales of people trying to steal pumpkins, even under the cover of darkness, and how they once caught thieves hiding their children under pumpkins in a wheelbarrow!
The discussion moves on to the expansion of the patch, which has now become a major family event with activities for children. They recount a particularly wet season where they ended up pushing cars out of muddy fields and collapsing with exhaustion afterward.
Amidst the humour, they reflect on the stress of managing large crowds, especially the chaotic early days. Despite the hard work, the hosts express excitement for the upcoming season, sharing how they’re setting up signs and preparing to make the pumpkin patch an unforgettable experience for visitors.
