Didn’t know THOUSAND pound pumpkins existed | Circleville Pumpkin Show | Finding Festivals

Circleville Ohio, is known for the longest-running annual event in Ohio with the Circleville Pumpkin Show. During my festival queen days, the parade was so long I thought my arm would fall off. If you love pumpkin, this is the event to try pumpkin-flavored everything from ice cream and cannoli to pizza and shredded chicken.
