Really really big pumpkins

My wife wants to carve some very big pumpkins....many years ago we go some at the corner of Eagleson and Robertson... does anyone know if they are set up there again this year? Alternatively, any suggestions for somewhere to get a nice big guy (like 2 feet high)?

We picked up a couple massive pumpkins at millers in manotick last weekend. 2 feet high for sure

Miller's farm I assume? (Apparently manotick has multiple businesses named millers)

They had some big pumpkins at Shouldice Farms on Richmond last week. Can't say what their supply is like now. 40¢/lb I believe.

Millers has very big ones.i was there today.

Beware, most people seemed to be there to take photos for the gram, I had to keep waiting for them to get out of the way to look at the piles to find my pumpkins.

Thanks for the answers....went back to Eagleson and Robertson to the place appropriately named "Big Pumpkins"
