A note for parents
Welcome to the Patch!
A quick hello before Friday's Parent & Kid Pumpkin Patch Walk, shared with you by Ms Dee of Wombat Hollow Farm.
We're an informal friends-and-family animal rescue in Hobart, WA. We grow pumpkins, we look after rescue horses, and we love sharing the patch with kids.
Short version: it's a quick, gentle walk through the patch. Your kids get to meet pumpkins with real names and stories. We welcome 3 families at a time, so there may be a short wait in line. Friday is a small crew, so you'll meet a few friendly faces.
Special Event: Adopt a Pipsqueak!

Before you come
- 🎃Just the patch. This is a quick pass through the pumpkins. No animal meet-and-greets on this walk.
- ⏳3 families at a time. We keep the patch calm and roomy, so there may be a short wait. A great time to pick a favorite on the website.
- ✂️No sharp tools for kids. Kids explore and choose. Our Keepers do all the cutting.
- 👢Dress for a farm in October. Sturdy shoes and a warm layer. We go rain or shine.
- 🕯️For decorating, not eating. Our Rescue Pumpkins are for display and carving only.
- 📱Bring a phone. Scan your pumpkin's QR code to hear their song at pipsqueakpumpkins.com.
