Shaping Pumpkins - Creepy or Artistic?
Published October 31st, 2009 in Diversions, Photos. by Marian Bennett, Coldwell Banker Tags: contest, pumpkins.Diverting myself from my normal business reading first thing in the morning, I allowed myself to get into the Halloween spirit.
Check out theses gourds!
A human face-shaped pumpkin grown in 1938. With a candle inside one of those on Halloween night… yikes! or add a little voice box behind it saying “help me…help me…” (that was hubby’s contribution).
Or what about what EPCOT is doing - growing pumpkins in the shape of Mickey Mouse ears…
Sounds like an activity for artists who like to use food as their pallette. It also sounds like a perfect Coastside class - Parks & Rec or a collababoration between one of the farms and a local artist . With an abundance of farmers and artists, imagine what someone here could create. There could also be a separate contest for Pumpkin Festival for the best pumpkin “design”.
Blue Sky Farms got our local coastside children involved in growing pumpkins this year with their own contest, including winnners for “Most Lopsided”, “Clearest Complexion” and “Cutest” among other categories.
