Hello
List,
The Niagara Pennisula Giant Pumpkin Growers
Association had there first meeting on Saturday.What a turnout we had 62 new
growers and about 10 more experienced growers. I would like to annouce a new
weigh off site at the Howell Family Pumpkin Farm, just outside St Catharines.
Jerry Howell has always wanted a weigh off site at his farm. He has applied for
GPC status and a surprise to us all, he annouced a very generous prize
structure, considering he has no sponsers on board yet. We let everyone know
about the up and coming seminar put on by Port Elgin on April 7th in Niagara
Falls. Jerry and I are quite excited at the response and are hoping for a large
number of big pumpkins in the fall. You can check out his web site atwww.ahowlinggoodtime.com
He has a pumpkin eating robotic 30 foot dinosaur,spook barn and many other
attractions, making this farm one of the premier fun filled family events in the
Niagara Region. I will keep you updated on the status as things come together.
Here is his prize structure. Only pumpkins so far but hopefully there will be
other vegetables.
