Following a world-record top ten average performance last year, the St. Croix Growers are eager to retest our 1800lb TTA on Saturday, Oct 8th in Lowell Park, Stillwater, MN.

The SCGA cordially invites you to celebrate pumpkin greatness at one of the premier weighoff sites in the world. We have a $25,000 prize purse to disperse to the largest pumpkins, watermelon, long gourds, tomatoes, and field pumpkins in the upper midwest. We offer a generous bonus structure, where any entries over 1500lbs in 4-10th place qualifies for an additional $1000, and $500 for 11-12th place >1500lbs. Most years, we do not have enough entries to pay out max bonus, so if ur on the fence where to go, there's a good chance your gas bill will be covered in Stillwater. :)

Thanks So Cal....I don't think Qtip uses a tractor, but I do. Now you have me thinking about replacing the lifting straps with log chains and getting my backyard and garden covered with cement. 10 days of worry left.
