Harrow in LEAF - Annual Pumpkin Day

	Allotment Associations & Horticultural Groups in Harrow, Middlesex

Always held at our HQ Cabin and Community space on West Harrow Allotments (large), HA1 4HE

Our inaugural Pumpkin Day - October 17th 2026, our new growing event!

Harrow in LEAF's FREE charity and community event, Pumpkin Day, was held from 2.00pm to 4.00pm at our HQ Cabin and Community area on West Harrow Allotments (large), HA1 4HE.

Here are a few photos from Saturday afternoon's fun. We had a good turnout and we believe that all the children enjoyed both the pumpkin trail and the carving of pumpkins (supervised). Luckily the sun shone for most of the afternoon and the tea and pumpkin cakes flowed. We have parental permission to these photos from the day on our website.

We asked you to along and chill out at Harrow in LEAF's first ever Pumpkin Day. Families could have a try at pumpkin carving. Bringing their own pumpkin or buying one from us (£1.50). Adult help and supervision was required for the carving - using your own carving tools if you have some - younger kids can draw on the design they want.

If you had grown pumpkins this year, we asked you to bring along a sample for the pumpkin display table and compare notes on growing the tastiest or the biggest.

It was a pleasant afternoon just relax with a cup of tea, and sample a slice of pumpkin traybake.

There was also be a pumpkin trail for the little ones, and a photo backdrop to liven up your souvenir pics.

It was all free, except for buying a pumpkin to carve, bringing your creative ideas with you.
