Esquimalt Farmers Market's Inaugural Pumpkin Carving Contest!

As if 2020 wasn't scary enough already, EFM are upping the spooks by hosting a VIRTUAL Pumpkin Carving Contest! All entries will be made online, so no pumpkin hauling required, just a photo of you with your pumpkin, and a copy of the Vic News to show it's freshly carved this year, by you! Sadly the Pie Baking Contest had to be cancelled this year, due to COVID-19 restrictions (it just wasn't feasible to run the contest as we did last year and pie tasting doesn't work via zoom!), so our wonderful Pie Contest sponsor, Will Nikl Real Estate Group, suggested we hold an alternative contest...like pumpkin carving! EFM agreed this would be a hoot and we could hold the contest completely online, so here we are! Get your carving knives at the ready - the contest will be held throughout October, with full details of how to enter and what you could WIN coming soon! Watch for entry details by joining the event. Winners will be announced October 29th. http://esquimaltmarket.com/pumpkin/
