Top Crop was host to Cranbrook’s Fall Fair and Pumpkin Challenge this Saturday past, Sept. 28.
The Pumpkin Challenge surely brought out the greatest pumpkins of them all — the East Kootenay’s most magnificent. Taking first place was Steven Labelle. In second place was Colt Bolen’s pumpkin; in third was Charlie Balen’s. Not least — or perhaps, least — was the first place prize for the smallest pumpkin entered, won by Bud and Shirley Jenson.
This day has now grown into a family event where vendors, food trucks, animals, live music and kids’ events make for a day the whole family can enjoy while raising some money to support local rescues.
Pumpkins and Fall Fairs, what better way to celebrate the glorious first days of Autumn.
