Zach,
Why prizes for the minor interest vegetables?
My experience for the past two years is that awarding prizes for a few
non-pumpkin entrants slows down the whole affair. Last year the special prize
for last place(to encourage entrants and make the contest more fun, I would
think) went to the second place tomato grower, who also got a ribbon for
second place.
Is the decision to have the other veggies set in stone?
John
