This hugemongous pumpkin was grown in Rhode Island by Joe Jutras. It weighs 1,689 lbs. — a world record! It was weighed in on September 29, 2007. For the smallest state, they grow ‘em big.
What were you feeding that rascal, Joe?

Yes, that’s true. I love RI. My son attends URI and we visit as often as we can.
