Young Farmers Compete In Pumpkin Contest

Farmers as young as five will be showing off their pumpkin growing skills today.

The Kingston Farmers Market is hosting their annual "Pumpkin Growing Contest", where kids ages five to sixteen compete in two different age categories and are judged on the size of their pumpkins.

Market Manager Lorraine Forbes tells CHSJ news the contest gives pride to kids in growing their own product.


The young farmers will be bringing in their pumpkins this morning and judging will take place at noon.
