Dale Marshall poses with his 2021 Alaska State Fair winning pumpkin weighing in at 1603.5lbs.

Dale Marshall never ceases to amaze Alaska State Fair visitors with his growing expertise and pumpkin patience. This year’s winning pumpkin, another Marshall monolith, weighed in at 1,603.5 pounds! It joins the ranks of other noteworthy pumpkins like his recording setter from 2019 that weighed in at over 2,000 pounds. As the single competitive pumpkin at the fair this year, Marshall walked away with a guaranteed win, but it was a behemoth nonetheless. Just imagine the number of pies you could make from such a colossal pumpkin. Incredible!

Southside Garden Supply is beyond excited and pleased to once again be a sponsor of Dale Marshall, helping in achieve true pumpkin supremacy.

From all of us at the two Southside Garden locations in Anchorage and Wasilla, we wish an enormous congratulations to Dale Marshal for his 2021 victory.
