Got Squash?

If you’ve cultivated a prodigious pumpkin, a hefty Hubbard, or an ample acorn, you should enter it in Southside’s 3rd annual Biggest Squash contest! The event will take place this Saturday, October 30th, at 10 a.m. at the Broad Street farmer’s market (located at 807 Broad St. near Potters Ave). First- and second-place winners will receive Stop & Shop gift cards, but everyone who comes for the contest will be able to enjoy free apple cider and Allie’s famous donuts. It’s the final day for the market this year, and tables will be bursting with fall produce, so don’t miss this chance to show off your colossal calabazas and your not-so-teeny zucchini to earn the respect—or even the pity—of your fellow growers!
