I am curious as to how many commercial pumpkin producers are on this site. I have about 7 acres of AG's, fields, specialty pumpkins, gourds, and ornamental corn. Started eight years ago when I retired with about 1/4 acre. So much for retirement !!!!

I am not there yet. Plan is a half acre eventually... will hopefully run at least one 'test' row of little gourds and pumpkins and some ornamental corn and see how it goes.

Great thread, Mr. House. How many of you will be in Green Bay? I'd love a quick round table discussion....
