Who would have thought that Warren, the smallest town in the smallest state, would be known for something so large? Since 2000 Frerichs Farm has hosted the Southern New England Giant Pumpkin Grower’s Annual Weigh-off on Columbus Day Weekend. Last year, more than 3,500 people from all corners of New England and New York come to see the pumpkins and enjoy the festivities. Pumpkins start arriving at 9 a.m. Music runs from 9 a.m. to noon, with the official weighing starting at noon. There will be a giant pumpkin drop at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 7 (rain date will be the 8th or 9th), 43 Kinnicutt Ave, Warren. Call 401/245-8245 for more information.
