HALLOWEEN lovers can kickstart their spooky celebrations with the opening of a brand new pumpkin patch.

Creative carvers can get their hands on a pumpkin and conjure up their best design in East Bergholt.

There will be eight pumpkin varieties of all shapes, colours and sizes on offer.

All pumpkins are home grown in this family farm.

The patch will open from Friday, October 15 until October 17, and then from October 22 until 31, 10am - 4pm.
