Who has the biggest pumpkin in the land? It’s a question answered every year at the Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off. On October 14, 4–6:30 p.m., participants will weigh their enormous pumpkins on a scale set up at the Alex Thomas Plaza in Ukiah. The winner will take home a cash prize equaling $1.50 a pound. The giant pumpkins will be displayed on a float in a parade on October 15 at 10 a.m. in downtown Ukiah. The weigh-off is part of the Ukiah PumpkinFest, which will feature a parade, children’s performances, baking contests for kids and adults, a scarecrow display, a pet costume contest, and a beer and wine garden. The festival is free and will be held on October 15, 10 a.m.–6 p.m., and October 16, 10 a.m.–4 p.m., in downtown Ukiah. Register for the Weigh-Off and other contests at cityofukiah.com/pumpkinfest.
