Pumpkin harvest for the pigs!

This week we ran across a farmer that grew pumpkins, but the bears got into his patch and destroyed most of the pumpkins and vines. He couldn't harvest them, so he offered to them to us for pig food. The vines were already mowed down, but the pumpkins were conveniently stacked in piles for us to pick up.  At the end of the day we had about 1500 lbs of pumpkins in the pig pen for feasting.


That's a heavy pumpkin!


Teamwork!


Time for a break



sigh

ok, back to work





King and Queen of the pumpkin mountain

Wow, is this hog heaven? these certainly don't look like pears!

yum!
