Time to find the perfect pumpkin for Halloween.
We know Autumn doesn't officially start until September 22nd, but we must admit we're a little excited about the new season.
Especially because Halloween is just around the corner.
If you're obsessed with all things Fall like us then you just have to add a visit to a Pumpkin Patch to your list of autumnal activities.
Luckily, there are plenty of pumpkin patches in Ireland and we've gathered up some of our favourites.
A word of advice- book your place quickly because there are no doubt spots will be swiped up before you know it.
