Pumpkin spectacle

thousands have flocked to a Yorkshire farm to pick their own pumpkins from a field for Halloween, including three-year-old Meghan Welburn, from York.

Now in its ninth year The Pumpkin Fest at The Farmers Cart, near York, which has seen a field transformed into a sea of orange over Halloween, has been hailed by organisers as the biggest yet. Owner Edward Sykes said: This year we have grown 10,000 pumpkins, squashes and gourds and it’s quite a spectacle.”
