We drive past this little nursery to get to our house - & yesterday we saw them carving the pumpkin (w/ a chain saw!) so today we had to stop and check it out! The owner came out to talk with us & explained that it weighed 989 lbs! He got the seed from a kid in Wisconsin...can you believe how big it is? It's huge! He rattled off tons of awards he has received from various years for growing big pumpkins - he grew one that was 1087 lbs last year! Wowzers.
