Fertilizer helps farmer beat son’s record

It was another record-breaking year at Frerichs Farm in Rhode Island! Richard Wallace’s 2,261.5-pound pumpkin squashed the North American giant pumpkin record set by his son, Ron, at the same event last year. Ron Wallace’s pumpkin weighed in at 2,230 pounds at the Frerichs Farm Pumpkin Weigh Off in Warren in 2015.

The elder Wallace gives credit to his organic wonder fertilizer.
