In October 2025, we’re adding a Halloween Pumpkin Patch our organic flower farm!
We’ll have pumpkins of all shapes and sizes, warm drinks, Halloween treats, and simple, cozy fun for the season.
Some childhood traditions stick with you like the scent of pumpkin spice in October. For me (hi, I’m Tess 👋), Halloween was always more than just one night of costumes and candy — it was a whole season. The feeling of fall — the leaves turning into beautiful shades of red, orange and yellow, the scent of damp earth and sweet apples, the golden afternoon light — and the pumpkins.
What makes an amazing Pumpkin Patch experience?
- Pumpkins
- Warm apple cider
- Delicious cinnamon & pumpkin baked goods
- Layers – you never know the temperatures
- Comfy shoes that cover your feet & warm socks
- A place where families and friends can slow down and enjoy the season
How to Carve (and Use!) Your Halloween Pumpkins
If this is your first time carving a pumpkin — or if it’s been a while — don’t worry. We’ve got you covered.
Martha Stewart (aka the Halloween queen 👑 in the U.S.) has some of the best resources out there for pumpkin carving, DIY autumn decor, and cozy seasonal crafts. Start with these links:

We’ll also be sharing our own videos and tutorials this season to help you:
- Carve your pumpkins
- Roast your pumpkin seeds (sweet, spicy, or classic salted)
- Bake and cook with pumpkins — think soups, pies, buns, cheesecake, mac’n’cheese
- Keep your jack-o’-lanterns fresh longer on your porch
Whether you’re planning something spooky or silly, we’re here to help you have fun with it. Grab a pumpkin, roll up your sleeves, and let the creativity fly.
Follow us on Instagram starting in October for step-by-step guides, kid-friendly ideas, and a little behind-the-scenes chaos from our own patch!
What inspired us to start a Halloween Pumpkin Patch?
I meet Mathias in Ireland, introduce him to the wonder of carving pumpkins (and the mess), and then we move to the Pacific Northwest of the US (Washington, Oregon, Idaho), where fall really knows how to show off. Every year, we made a tradition of going to Bob’s Corn & Pumpkin Farm near Seattle. Hot apple cider in one hand, warm donuts in the other, picking pumpkins in our rain boots while kids laughed in the corn maze. That place was a little autumn dreamland.
Now in Sweden, we want to share that same feeling with our community. We’ve met so many people curious about Halloween and pumpkin patches — mostly from seeing them in movies. We thought: why not bring that experience here?

A Short History of Halloween
Halloween has its roots in the Celtic festival Samhain, which marked the end of the harvest and the start of winter. People lit bonfires and wore costumes to keep spirits away. Later, it merged with Christian traditions and became known as All Hallows’ Eve — eventually, Halloween.
Originally, people carved turnips with candles inside. When the tradition made its way to North America, pumpkins became the go-to carving vegetable. Over time, Halloween grew into the celebration we know today — with costumes, candy, and spooky fun.
Pumpkin patches also grew in popularity — not just as a place to buy pumpkins, but as a way to celebrate the season with hayrides, corn mazes, and family events.

Final Thoughts
Starting a pumpkin patch in Sweden is part nostalgia, part community project, and part experiment. We don’t know if it’ll all go to plan. But we’re excited to try — and to share the simple joy of walking through a field, picking out your own pumpkin, and sipping something warm while the leaves fall.
If you love pumpkins, autumn colors, quiet country afternoons, or just want to try something new with the kids, come out and wander. Grab a mug of cider, pick a pumpkin or three, and know that every purchase helps us plant more flowers, feed more bees, and keep this little farm alive.
Bring a coat & rainboots. Let’s make some new traditions together.
– Tess & Mathias
