Sunnyfields FarmThe family of Ozzy Osbourne have visited a mural of the rock legend made from more than 10,000 pumpkins and squashes.
Sharon, Jack and Kelly Osbourne surprised visitors at Sunnyfields Farm in Totton, Hampshire, on Saturday evening where the artwork has been on display since 4 October.
The former Black Sabbath frontman, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2019, died on 22 July.
The family were given a tour by Sunnyfields owners Tom and Ian Nelson. Sharon and Jack also boarded a cherry picker to see the mural from above.
Kelly’s fiance, Sid Wilson, and their son, Sidney, were also there to see the pumpkins.
Tom Nelson said the farm had asked members of the public to choose the theme for this year’s display, with the Prince of Darkness receiving the majority of the votes.
He said: “Even though we think something is a good idea, it might not be so we put it out to the public.
“So 70% of the people said ‘it’s got to be Ozzy this year.
“So we let the public decide.”
Founded by Mr Nelson’s parents in 1990, the farm has shown off its pyramid display for the past 10 years and entered the record books in 2023 for the largest mosaic created from cucurbits – the plant family which includes pumpkins and squashes.
The artwork took 16 people four-and-a-half hours to create.
It remains on display until the end of the month.
