Did you know that our city is home to an official pumpkin each fall? This year, Boston has gone all out â there is now a trio of gigantic pumpkins to admire inside the Boston Public Market.
While we typically only get two official pumpkins, this yearâs inaugural trio features a âPumpKing,â âPumpQueen,â and a midsize squash (the heaviest squash ever, to be exact).
Wondering just how large + in charge these beauties are? Their combined total weight is more than 3,815 pounds.
We have Phillipstonâs Red Apple Farm (a vendor at the year-round market) to thank for the pumpkins, which have arrived just in time for the fifth annual Harvest Party. Psst â if you forgot to grab tickets for tonightâs festivities, there are still a few left.
