When I was a kid I always wished that there was Pumpkin Picking in Ireland, I remember hearing my American cousins talk about how fun it was and being insanely jealous that I never had the chance to try it. Hence why it was at the top of my “New York Bucket List” this year, along with ice skating in Central Park (only a few more weeks to go). So last weekend some of you might have seen on my Snapchat (michaelabear1) or my Instagram, that Cathal and I went on a little adventure upstate for a day of Autumn Festivities. Its hard to find a pumpkin farm thats accessible from the city if you dont have a car but luckily we came across one called Harvest Moon Farm and Orchard that truly didnt dissapoint. We got the train up from Manhattan to a quaint little town called Purdy’s and then walked an hour through the country side to find the farm. I know an hour might seem like a long time but honestly it was so refreshing to be out in the open space and soak up all of the pretty foliage on the trees!
