Hey Ken, noticed your 1999 copyright so I assume this would be your BIG 25th Anniversary! CONGRATULATIONS for all you have done for growers around the World. If not so what still celebrate. Danny

Thank You Ken! We appreciate all you have done and continue to do for the giant pumpkin and giant vegetable growing community. I sincerely believe we would not be even close to the heights we are at today without big pumpkins. com.

I think its a nice mix of info and pumpkin dopamine. I probably post way too much (and read way too much) but I dont feel like this site is a "waste of my time". Or a few dollars! Thanks Ken!!!!!

Yes, this is an amazing site, that I have participated in for 19 of the 25 years. The vast amount of info has helped us individually as well as collectively to grow our pumpkins bigger and bigger! Most of all, I agree with KC Kevin. The friendships made are priceless! Keep in mind...the growers you have got to know, but maybe haven't actually communicated with... have got to know you too!! In your downtime on these wintery days, take a look back on the old diaries. Really fun to do! You can see how some of today's growers, such as Quinn, started out. 2011 was the peak for diaries with 514 growers sharing their stories. And a few were pretty funny!!! 25 great years! THANK YOU KEN!

Congratulations, Ken, on 25 years of BigPumpkins.com. What a milestone, what an achievement, and what a great place for giant pumpkin growers from around the world to get together to share information and knowledge. Even in this modern day of social media, I don't think you can beat BigPumpkins.com.
