What to expect
Piltown Pumpkin Patch began in 2021, we grow all of our own pumpkins and gourds here on the farm, and visitors get to enjoy seasonal photo opportunities, games, play areas, a tractor ride and a not-so-spooky woodland walk.
Every ticket holder also receives one free small pumpkin to take home. Located on a farm just outside Julianstown, Co. Meath, Piltown Pumpkin Patch offers an authentic, homegrown Halloween experience for the whole family — and it’s one you won’t want to miss this Halloween season!
Saturdays & Sundays 03 - 25 October + Sensory Days 09 & 16 October, see Ballymad Farm website for details.
