Who is ready for the 150 square-foot challenge? Yes this unique competition takes what we love about growing giant pumpkins and brings it down to a scale that is not only easy and manageable for newer growers, but at the same time gives the seasoned growers a run for their money as they will learn a lot putting everything they know to the test in a miniaturized pumpkin patch.

I invite anybody/everbody whether they've grown a pumpkin or not to get involved in this competition. This competition can be done in a very small space just 10' x 15' and nearly everybody has that much soil! We are going worldwide with this competition and it is sure to bring in some fantastic results!!! 2 years ago a brand new World Record was produced by Paul Bongers out of his 150 square-foot patch coming in at an incredible 1,448 pounds grown in Minnesota (hmm another pumpkin World Record is out of that state!)

Are you ready to hone your skills? Are you ready to grow the next world record pumpkin in
