The Lidl Neep Patch

Looking for a fun day out for the kids? Come along to The Lidl Neep Patch! 

Pumpkin carving takes inspiration from an old Scottish tradition of carving terrifying ‘Tumshie Lanterns' to scare away bad spirits, so patch the pumpkins and join us as we take Halloween back to its roots.

Pick a neep from our pop-up patch and take it to the Tumshie Tent to craft your lantern before warming your belly at the Stovies Stop, where you can enjoy a Scottish delicacy made using our very own locally sourced produce. Then perch yourself on a straw bale to eat your fill while toe-tapping to the tune of Scottish folk musicians.

There’s lots to keep the wee ones entertained too, with fun, family games in the Lidl Neepers Play Pen, or taking a walk along the Tattie Bogle Trail.

It’s a real “turnip” for the books with tickets costing just £5 per adult and kids under 11 go free, so get in quick before they sell out!

The neeps have been made ripe for picking by our 25-year long supplier, Stewarts of Tayside, which has been operating in Perth as an independent, family run business for over 40 years.

All proceeds from the event will be donated to the STV Children’s Appeal and any unused produce or decorative items will be donated to local businesses and farms.
