growing Giant Pumpkins is an intense and highly competitive practice as growers produce larger and larger pumpkins every year and enter them in various competitions.

the largest pumpkins currently top a ton in weight, and seeds from these prize-winning goliaths can sell for hundreds of dollars apiece proving there is indeed such a thing as a Pedigree Pumpkin.

Did you know that in Oregon there is a boat race where the boats are pumpkins? It’s called the Giant Pumpkin Regatta and it looks like this:

Damariscotta Maine also has a pumpkin regatta, most are like the picture above where paddles are the propelling force but a special section has engines attached to the pumpkins

the pumpkinfest also gives out giant pumpkin seeds (for free!) for people to grow. During the festival you can see the racers construct their boats
