Pumpkin Picking and the Maize Maze at Undley Farm
Two decades of pumpkin growing sit behind this Suffolk field. Undley Farm Events was founded by Anthony Pooley on a third-generation family farm that grows its own pumpkins, maize and gourds, and the patch carries more than 60 varieties of pumpkin and gourd. The maize maze is the other half of the day. The 2026 theme is The Creepy Coach, with a real double-decker bus standing in the maize as a lookout platform, and two separate spooky mazes cut into the crop, one short and one long, so a family can pick the length that suits the youngest walker. Around those two draws are giant inflatables, face painting, a straw bale pyramid and seasonal craft stalls, with a range of refreshments sold on site. A SEN session runs from 9am to 10am on Saturday 17 October, ahead of general opening, for families who would rather come before the field fills up. Site entry is free, but the free tickets are booked in advance through the farm. Nothing is scanned when you arrive; the ticketing simply lets the farm judge how many people to staff and cover for first aid on the day. One practical warning comes from the farm itself: indoor space is at a premium if it rains, so bring umbrellas rather than counting on shelter. The venue does not publish what pumpkins or the maze cost, so budget for both on the day.
Open from 2026-10-03 to 2026-10-31
