A Pumpkin Takes Root

Growing a giant pumpkin is more than a race to see how large it can become. It is a connection to a long tradition of gardens, growers, and communities that have always found pride in what can be cultivated from the soil. This project carries forward a piece of agricultural history while creating a place where curiosity can grow — reminding us that education often begins with something as simple as planting a seed and watching what happens next.
