Pumpkin Patch Word Search
Pumpkins are a winter squash, grown on sprawling vines that can run twenty feet across open ground. Each vine carries separate male and female flowers, and bees have to travel between them before any fruit will set. Growers who specialise in the giant varieties have pushed a single pumpkin past two thousand pounds.
