This is just a reminder to all out there about the Cooperstown, NY weighoff. Come for a weekend of pumpkin fun and of course the other tourist attractions. To any growers out there planning on attending- don't forget to bring any other noteworthy vegetables you grew this year. It's not just about the pumpkins. Giant squash, long gourds, sunflowers, tall corn, heavy tomatoes, they're all welcome! Check out http://www.nysgpga.com/Pages/upcoming.html for details on the weighoff, as well as a link to the prize list. note: on the prize list - 6th-10th pays 50 bucks each, not just 6th. and first place for squash is $250, not 50. Also, additional prizes for local growers growing in Otsego county!
