About The Pumpkin Garden

The Pumpkin Garden - Pignataro Maggiore | Secret World Trip Planner

<p>Did you know that there&rsquo;&egrave; a little piece of&rsquo;America in Caserta? For those like us &egrave; in love with&rsquo;autumn, Halloween, warm colors that from white fade into&rsquo;orange and brown, the <strong>Garden of Pumpkins</strong> in Pignataro Maggiore &egrave; an enchanted place.</p> <p>The <strongest>Pumpkin Garden<ugrave; largest in&rsquo;Europe</strong>. Whatever age&agrave; you are, 3 or 66, here is&rsquo;&egrave; the perfect pumpkin waiting for you. Every year the garden welcomes more than 30 thousand visitors from all over Italy and it&egrave; a beautiful place. Wrapped in a&rsquo;star-studded atmosphere we will find the barn, the typical red carts, the open &ldquo;pick up&rdquo; van seen in so many movies and TV series, the animal farm with the&rsquo;alpacas, giant rabbits, Shetland ponies and crusading donkeys that give milk. And then the giant 7,000-square-meter corn maze, where you can literally get lost in nature and find the rare cobs of colorful &ldquo;gem corn&rdquo; formerly grown by Native Americans and the &ldquo;mums&rdquo;, the chrysanthemum plants, which in the U.S. are a symbol of respect and life.</p> <p>Since 2017, every autumn, there has been a renewed appointment with The Pumpkin Garden, an&rsquo;experience born from an&rsquo;idea of Emily and entered in a very short time the hearts of many people. Emily, as she likes to be called, &egrave; the daughter of an Italian and an American: this dual soul &ndash; together with her strength, creativity &agrave; and originality &ndash; has given birth in her the desire to create a place made of beauty, dreams and harmony. Her Pumpkin Patch brings to Italy the tradition, all stars and stripes, related to the world of pumpkins, a very tasty product that, thanks to the&rsquo;carving and decorating, especially at Halloween time, &egrave; can transform any home into an enchanted place.</p> <p>l Pumpkin Garden aims to introduce , approach and experience firsthand a tradition rooted in American culture known as the " Pumpkin Patch" ( Pumpkin Gathering) which consists of spending a few hours outdoors among pumpkins to choose the one to take home and decorate for the Fall and Halloween period.</p> <p>Such an event has as its broader objective to raise awareness and approach to the "earth" discovering the&rsquo;autumn from a cultural , gastronomic and artistic point of view. An 'area of this garden &egrave; dedicated to creative workshops for children and adults.</p> <p>The ticket costs about 20 euros, is bought online and with each ticket you are entitled to a pumpkin to carve or color, as well as access to the Family Farm and the Corn Maze. Everyone picks out their &ldquo;perfect pumpkin&rdquo; in the field and then goes to the workshops. Children under one meter don't pay, they don't get the pumpkin but of course there &rsquo;&egrave; the one provided in the mom and dad&agrave; ticket. Also included in the ticket &egrave; is access to the Family Farm and the corn maze. To some it may&ograve; seem expensive, but how much would a restaurant lunch cost you 4? Less than 20&euro;? Perhaps much more&ugrave;&hellip;only here you live a&rsquo;truly unique experience (only once a&rsquo;year) and take home a special memory.</p>
