Half Term: Blackpool's pumpkin festival puts kids in the autumn spirit

Fylde families get mucky and creative at a pumpkin festival which runs through half term until Oct 30 at Ridgeway Farm on Peel Road in Blackpool.

It’s the fourth annual event for the working farm, and families get to meet the animals, visit the pumpkin patch and decorate their own pumpkin in an Autumn-themed orchard.
