There's always loads going on at Rutland Farm Park and this Halloween is no exception.

If you're looking for something more on the spooky side, Rutland Farm Park is holding their Spoooooky Sunday event on Sunday 27th October. They invite visitors to don their spookiest outfit for a free bag of animal feed. There will also be face painting, hunt the witch, apple bobbing, a scavenger hunt and more.

There is also the opportunity to get creative and use your pumpkin carving skills (however good they may be) to make your own spooky design. This is open to all ages and abilities but children must be supervised by an adult. The sessions are on Friday 25th October at 11pm and 2pm.
