Beginning with weigh-ins on Sept. 26, 4-H held their giant pumpkin auction at Iron Kettle Farm in Candor, N.Y. to see who could grow the largest! The pumpkins were on display until the auction on Sept. 28 at 3 p.m.
There were many winners, and many large pumpkins with Side Hill Acres in Candor purchasing two of the largest grown.
During the Candor Fall Festival, planned for Oct. 10, Side Hill Acres will have professional carvers carve them at her location at 79 Spencer Road in Candor.
