South Saskatchewan Pumpkin Festival & International Weigh-off will be held next year the last week of September in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.

We are currently looking for all and any available seed fellow growers from around the world can donate. From response so far with event sponsors and future growers this will be a huge event. Since this is the only weigh-off in the province and is open to any one in Canada and the U.S. and it is scheduled for a week before other weigh-offs attendance is expected to be huge.

We plan on making 5 seeds available free to any one wanting to attempt to grow a pumpkin for the weigh-off and will as well give a basic how to grow Atlantic Giants info pack with the seeds which will include this website and hort.net as additional sources of information.

We would like to make up 150 packages which we will need roughly 750 seeds. Please include 1st generation parentage on the envelope of the seeds and if you would like to be of help to our new growers include your e-mail address as well so they may contact you.

Please send seed to

Thank-you to all the growers that can help
