On Saturday afternoon, the NK Pumpkin Growing was held at Fruit Garden Verbeek in Oldebroek. The name says it all NK, yet there were international participants. Due to the open registration, there were also participants from Belgium.
Gerjan Puttenstein from Wezep had a home competition this year, growing a 526 kg pumpkin, which earned him 7th place. A Dutch record was broken on Saturday by Iwan Horde from Leerdam. With 897.7 kg, he broke the old Dutch record. Luc Leuckelom from Belgium had grown the heaviest pumpkin by as much as 919.5kg. For visitors, there was plenty organised around the giant pumpkins, vegetables and largest sunflowers. These included a host of sales stalls, a pumpkin artist, scavenger hunt for the children and tasty catering stalls.
