Pumpkin Hurling Season U.S.A.

Pumpkins fly across the USA this month in a variety of Pumpkin Chuckin' events:

There are only three days until our own Vermont Pumpkin Chuckin' Festival, on Sunday, October 7th, at the Boyden Family Farm, in Cambridge Vermont.

Here are some other pumpkin hurling events that will be going on around the country later this month:
