Greetings growers. Tomorrow is the 10th anniversary of the St. Croix Growers Assn. annual weigh-off. Now in our 7th year at Harvest Fest.

If you are on the fence about coming or don't have a pumpkin and are debating coming. Quit it. It's going to be worth the drive of any distance.

We've had a great weather year here in the upper midwest. Finally! The results tomorrow will show it. Giant pumpkins, field pumpkins, other giant vegetables. It's going to be incredible. Records will be set. State records, and yes a legit shot at multiple world records.

Here's a nice article about the event and what we expect. And this article leaves out the entry that I feel is our best shot at a WR.

We hope to see you there. It's going to be a beautiful day, fall colors are at their peak, and lots of great growers for networking.
