A Great Pumpkin


The Dallas Morning News has posted a story about two men's quest to grow a half-ton pumpkin. It's drawn from the new book Backyard Giants: The Passionate, Heartbreaking, and Glorious Quest to Grow the Biggest Pumpkin Ever, but also discusses the author's own attempt to grow a prize-sized gourd of her own; hers got to 240 pounds.

The article also has links to an audiovisual show about growing the big pumpkin as well as an excerpt of the author reading from her book.--David E
