PYO Wildflowers
We pride ourselves on our commitment to nature, and have found that not only the Maize, but also the sixteen different varieties of wildflowers we grow alongside the maze attracts pollinating insects such as honey bees, as well as offering food for local songbirds.
Why not treat yourself to a handpicked bouquet? We have sixteen different flower varieties available for you to handpick including Sunflowers, Sunbow Zinnia, varieties of Cosmos and Godetia to name a few.
Bunches are priced at £5 for a small bouquet, £10 for medium and £15 for a larger bunch. Whilst we have secateurs that you can use at your own risk, we do advise that you bring your own if you can.
There’s even more!

FAQS
Below are the most common questions we get asked, but if none of these answer your question please drop us an email or call us on 07885 257422 and we’ll be happy to answer any query you have.
How suitable are the Mazes for wheelchair users?
The tracks are wide and have been flattened. We are very accommodating to wheelchair users, however please bear in mind that the tracks are uneven in places due to being in a field.
What clothing do you recommend?
Outdoor sensible footwear, a sunhat – if we ever get any sunshine!
What happens if we get lost in the Maze?
We have a lookout tower with a flag on it at the end of the Maze. A member of staff will also be loitering in the maze to assist people should they get lost, and “You are here” boards will be at various places around the maze.
Are dogs allowed at The Pulham Patch?
Unfortunately due to the cleanliness and safety of visitors dogs cannot enter the Maize Maze, Play Area, Pumpkins and Flowers. However should visitors wish to use the footpath to Tyrells Wood which runs along the site after their visit to the Pulham Patch they’re very welcome to do so meaning dogs are allowed in the car park.
Is there disabled access?
Yes, but bare in mind the site is a field on a farm. The entrance and track around the maze are very flat.
Do I have to pre-book tickets?
Pre-booking is an option but pay on the gate is also an option. Please note that if you’re visiting us in an afternoon that our last entry time is 3pm.
Are there Baby Changing facilities?
We have a seating area and portable toilets, but no designated baby changing facilities at this time.
Can we bring our own food?
Yes you’re very welcome to! Katherines Kitchen is based on site also as an option and rubbish bins are available to dispose of rubbish.
