Event Reminder: Giant Pumpkin Weigh-in Saturday, Sep. 20th
by John Hensler
The gurus of giant gourds will arrive at Hensler’s to face off in the ultimate pumpkin competition. The Indiana Pumpkin Growers Association kicks off Fall Fest when they bring their giant pumpkins for a weigh-in beginning at 10 a.m. on Saturday, September 20th. Past weigh-ins have featured entries between 170 to 1000 pounds.
These pumpkins are so big they have to be seen to be believed! We expect the competition to be an excellent photo opportunity as we find out which of those plump pumpkins reaches the top of the scale.

Speaking of photo opportunities, while you’re at Hensler’s you can buy tickets for a horse drawn wagon ride out to the pumpkin patch where you’ll find acres of pumpkins ready for picking. What a great opportunity to capture a few photos of your family finding the perfect pumpkin!
Our shops are open and we’re offering a lovely selection of mums, gourds and fall decorations. We know many of you share our enthusiasm for Christmas, so we’ve opened the Christmas Barn early this year where you can get a head start on your holiday shopping and decorating.
