Pumpkin Patch was a busy place

The crisp air and autumn sunshine helped to bring out large crowds yesterday to the first Pumpkin Patch picking event at Hacklow, Kilcullen, writes Brian Byrne.

Organised by Amanda Lambe and Mark Donovan, the numbers of families coming out surprised even them. In addition to the opportunity to pick their own pumpkins, those who who came could meet Ginger the pig and Basil the pony and enjoy goal shoots, wellies-throwing, and wet sponge potshots, as well as availing of a number of suitably rustic selfie photo spots.

The Pumpkin Patch is open again today from 11am-4pm.
