Plant pumpkin seeds in the Walled Gardens at Temple Newsam.

Visit the Walled Gardens and pot two pumpkin seeds, one for you to take and grow at home, and one for the gardeners to grow on for you. We'll then look after it carefully and wait for you to return to us and collect or carve it at Halloween.

We'll also be planting more wildflowers to help get our butterfly-friendly meadows established, as part of the Wild Spaces Project.

No need to book, just drop in at any time between 1pm - 3pm.
