It’s the great pumpkin, Tampa. Bearss Groves in North Tampa is set to feature a 1,500-pound pumpkin in celebration of the season. This is a family-run farm located at 14316 Lake Magdalene Blvd. The iconic farm shop features gorgeous plants, and some of the best produce and locally crafted provisions you’re bound to experience in this city. Their annual pumpkin patch is always a must-attend event for locals; the mammoth pumpkin arrival is just icing on the cake.

The 1,500-pound pumpkin was purchased and transported from Michigan and arrived at Bearss Groves this morning where it was placed on display, creating the perfect fall photo op. It’s free to see and take photos of the pumpkin.
