The Mad Fetch Pumpkin Grower shines again!


See Matt

See Matt grow a pumpkin

See Matt haul crap

See Matt watch the weather....24/7

See Matt haul more crap

See Matt stay up at night worrying

See Matt haul more crap

See Matt tuck his pumpkins in at night

See Matt send soil samples in to test

See Matt haul more crap

etc.....etc......etc............


See Matt grow a GIANT PUMPKIN !



It was an awesome year for the Grow Big or Go Home Mountain Green clan.
Matt totally creamed his winning record from last year with not one,
but two awesome pumpkins.
His Utah record breaking weight last year was 1169 lbs. This year he broke that record for a short moment with a 1300+ giant. I can't remember the exact size since just a few minutes later they stuck his gigantor alien pumpkin on the scale and it weighed in at
a whopping 1600 lbs!!

What an awesome moment for Matt and all of us Crazy Matt lovers!


The winner got blessed with a chilly ice water dowsing
followed by a big whip cream pie to the face.

Matt's plan next year is to take the year off
from growing the giant orange blobs,
build a giant green house instead
and shoot for the World record in 2013!!

See Matt

See Matt haul crap.........

Go Matt Go!!
