Autumn is my favourite season, so every time it rolls around I get completely stuck into any activity I possibly can. One of my absolute faves (and the entirety of Instagram too by the looks of it...) is to go Pumpkin picking.
PYO farms have been a favourite of mine ever since I was little, frequently visiting Tulley's Farm with my grandparents to pick strawberries, raspberries and any other goods we could get our hands on. There's something I find so exciting about picking something so bright/colourful/tasty that's come from the ground and searching for the best ones you can find.
This year, Tulley's Farm introduced a Pumpkin Patch so I headed there with Jasmin and Josh to pick our prize pumpkins!
Happy days xxx

Every time Autumn rolls around I wish I lived in America to go and admire row upon row of pumpkins at a Pumpkin Patch. This year, however, I scouted out a local PYO farm that had pumpkins and squashes and headed down there on their last weekend of the season. 
I have always loved Pick Your Own farms.
There's something so exciting about finding endless coloured jewels of fruit and veg among the foliage. I'm used to picking raspberries and strawberries, pumpkins are a little easier to spot! I discovered Roundstone Farm last year in one of Zoella's vlogs and wanted to go this Summer for fruit picking, but having missed the chance I was excited to go for some Autumn goods instead!

We wandered through the field discovering cabbages, raspberries and all sorts of other vegetables before stumbling upon the pumpkin patch. After wandering about the patch, we picked our perfect pumpkin and headed off to weigh and pay! I also grabbed a a blue pumpkin which apparently are best for eating (but look like aliens!) and some pretty squashes from the farm shop too.
I'd definitely recommend spending an afternoon at a PYO farm to collect up your pumpkins for Halloween or Autumn styling around and about the house. Roundstone farm is now closed for the season but just a quick google search will tell you where your local one is!
p.s. there's a vlog of our visit coming on Sunday!

Autumn is quite possibly my favourite season.
This morning I woke up a felt a proper Autumn chill in the air.

Crunchy burnt orange, faded brown and rusty red leaves scattering the pavements and grass.
Hot chocolates, the works of course
Knitted scarfs, jumpers, dresses, cardigans, hats... knitted everything!
Getting all dressed up with your friends for Halloween
Hot drinks, burgers and sparklers on fireworks night
A new winter wardrobe
Candles, everywhere. Filling the room with wonderful smells
Pumpkins, Toffee Apples and Marshmallows
Carving Pumpkins
Cuddles on rainy days in
Long, cold, crisp walks
Salted caramel everything
Collecting conkers
Just simply being cosy.

Pretty pumpkins, scary movies, sticky toffee apples and dead school girls... pretty much sums up my halloween. I've never properly dressed up for halloween before so I was super excited to get into it! I'll definitely be buying contacts again next year, they successfully freaked everyone out! These are just a few quick photos from my iPhone to sum up my halloween! Next up, Fireworks night!
How was your halloween? What did you get up too?
