In this episode of The Pumpkin Patch Mum, you’ll hear the real story of how a farmer's daughter from Billericay and a Colchester boy with a love for veg turned a university side hustle into one of the UK’s leading suppliers of wholesale pumpkins — and one of Essex’s most-loved pick your own pumpkin patches.
Discover how picking green beans became the perfect first date, why a rainy wedding led to the very first pick your own pumpkin patch back in 2015, and what it’s really like building a business from the ground up while juggling full-time jobs and raising a family.
