Hey hey USA - 5th October pumpkin people in Jackson
It was that time of year. Orange leaves, red leaves, yellow leaves, election hoardings and a bevy of pumpkins. There must be hundreds of acres in the US devoted to growing pumpkins but I wonder what proportion ever reach the table. Jackson is famous for its pumpkins, or rather its pumpkin people who line the side of the streets and front yards, sometimes advertising services, or just for entertainment. They certainly weren’t the common or garden squashes with slits for eyes and mouth. For your delectation here are a few pictures.
