The hunt for the perfect pumpkin was on at Shantzholm Farm near Mannheim on Saturday. Here Talitha Schroth, 11, of Kitchener, carefully scans the field for just the right pumpkin as sister Maggie, 9, in purple, and cousins Anderson Riddolls, 5, in red, and his brother Dawson pick their pumpkins. With Halloween just a week away, Shantzholm welcomed hundreds of visitors this weekend for free fun, including wagon rides around the farm.
