A pumpkin weighing more than 2,000 pounds took home the title of the biggest pumpkin grown in Alberta earlier this month.
Don Crews of Lloydminster won the prize for biggest pumpkin at Smoky Lake’s Great White North Pumpkin weigh-off and fair, with a monster pumpkin weighing in at a whopping 2,137 pounds.
