Let the growing begin

Dan Pang, the instigator of our enormous undertaking is off to Brandon next week to purchase the pumpkin seeds. One of the determining factors in your ability to grow a world-record pumpkin is starting with good seed. And Brandon is the home of McKenzie Seeds - Canada's number one supplier of packaged seeds. So Dan thought it would be a good time for a road trip.

For those of you who've never grown a pumpkin before, the following links provide tips to get you started:
