This year, 140+ pumpkins will be on display outside the Vella family home at 354 Sussex. It’s a family tradition in its 29th year.The pumpkins will be on display starting at 5 pm on October 31.
See attached for some new pumpkins:
My daughter Maya (now Dr. Maya Vella, MD, a UCSF Radiologist) and I have a running disagreement about when we first started carving pumpkins together. The oldest video I have is from 1995. So we are calling it our 29th year. We will be putting out 45 organic and 105 foam pumpkins this year. I created 35 new foam pumpkins via Dremel drill carving. My garage holds our collection of 150 foam pumpkins, that we rotate through.
Everyone invited!
