Gardeners, USAWeekend wants photos of giant fruits, veggies

It’s a strange time of year to be asking for photos of giant fruits and vegetables, but that’s exactly what USAWeekend magazine wants.

Yesterday’s  edition invites gardeners to mail photos of large specimens. The magazine will announce entries on its website and might even publish them in a book. Photos don’t have to be from this year.

Include the following information:

—Who is in the photo

—What the photo shows

—Where you live and/or where the giant was grown

—When the giant was grown

—How you managed to grow such a large specimen

—Any interesting stories happen as a result of growing this giant?

Deadline for entries is April 30, 2009. Read other details and upload your photos.
