How big will the winning giant pumpkin in the weigh-off be this year? Last year it was 1,103 pounds! Come for a fun day of gawking at huge orange blobs, plus pony rides, face painting, toad races, carnival games, harvest food, music and a talk about bats (reservations requested for the bat talk, 360-466-3821 or 800-585-8200). We also welcome you to bring and show off your giant vegetables, big sunflowers and pumpkins grown by children. Free admission; some activities have a small fee.
