Come See Our Huge Pumpkin!
Johnny Harms has been trying his hand at growing pumpkins for a few years now. He started by wanting to grow one for his nephew, Nico. Every year he has grown a bigger and bigger pumpkin!

1st pumpkin, 125 lb, Nico was just a couple months old.
2nd pumpkin, 205 lb 

  
   









Nico's and Johnny's 4th Halloween, pumpkin weighing in at 743 lbs!
3rd pumpkin, 450 lb, was displayed in the Garden Center, but it got too hot in there and unfortunately rotted so it never made it to Nico's
      
Three Generations celebrating  Johnny's biggest pumpkin yet!

Nico, now four, is standing tall in front with his Uncle Johnny, Grandma Pat, mommy Pattie, Grandpa Richard and Mema Lori!

Come in and see this year's HUGE PUMPKIN and guess the weight!
