Each harvest season local farmers, S&So Produce and Dagele Brothers, graciously donate a pumpkin per student at Golden Hill Elementary in Florida ( grades Pre-K through 5).
The Florida Chamber of commerce and the Florida Farmers Market sponsor a pumpkin decorating contest with these donations each year. Any student at Golden Hill is invited to decorate their pumpkin and deliver it to the farmers market…held Tuesday on 17A ( across from QuickCheck).
The pumpkins are displayed and then voted on for prizes. The vendors of the market are the judges who cast their votes for the winners and the prizes are for Pre-K through Kindergarten, 1st grade through 3rd and 4th grade through 5th.
1st Place $30.00 (3)
2nd Place $20.00 (3)
3rd Place $10.00 (3)
There were an amazing amount of pumpkins returned this season and a great amount of talent .
We are pleased to announce the Winners (no last names for the students have been provided) of the Pumpkin Decorating Contest!
