Here's another shot of Bill's patch, I wish I had taken the VGVGA folks over there for the patch tour too. No giant monsters to see but they could see what "all natural" looks like. You can see he has no wind or critter fence so he has some vines blowing around as he doesn't bury them. These are all open pollinations but you can tell which pumpkins are on which plant by their shape, the 300 Keim grows torpedos which will turn a bright orange. I haven't grown the 851 Keim before so we'll see whether it's orange or not, it's a cross between the 300 Keim and 1289 Breznick and they look to be much rounder. Time will tell.
