ELK GROVE, Calif. — That’s a lot of pumpkin seeds.
A Canadian farmer has won a contest in California with a pumpkin that weighs more than 1,500 pounds.
Jake van Kooten of British Columbia collected more than $9,000 in prize money Saturday at the Elk Grove Giant Pumpkin and Harvest Festival.
Festival spokesman Steve Capps says the entry set a state record — by 1 pound. The Associated Press
