Christy with her 1725 Harp '09 (1385 x self). Championship growers are the reason for the GPC/TODAY Show entourage. Today we had a "Meet & Greet" for the growers on their way to NYC. We used our Valley Green warehouse in Norwalk to hub the pumpkins since our truck to deliver the pumpkins to Rockefeller Plaza again this year. It was great seeing everybody again! Today was like a cross between a weigh off & Niagara. CONGRATULATIONS CHRISTY & THANK YOU. YOU'RE A CLASS ACT! The card was very nice. You & nick are the best! I hope your time at the top is long & fruitful!
