Pumpkins galore in this week's edition


Students in Mrs. Duffield's second grade class at Taft School get a "hands-on" feel for a pumpkin durning an Ag in the Classroom session recently. Submitted photo.

There is lots of pumpkin news in this week's Humboldt Independent.
Ag in the Classroom visited Sonja Peyton's first graders at St. Mary School and Ann Duffield's second graders at Taft School, where students learned all about pumpkins, including that pumpkins can float and not all pumpkins are orange in color. Read the story and see photos in this week's Humboldt Independent.
Also, this Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 14-15 marks the 18th annual Pumpkins and Ponies event at Springvale Farm, 2603 Lone Tree Road.
