I found out about the Mt. Washington Pumpkin Chuck from a friend’s Instagram a few years ago.

After Halloween, everyone always has lots of pumpkins around and what better way to get rid of them than launching them across a field from a catapult!

I knew our family how to experience this adventure for ourselves!

My boys brought their own pumpkins to launch. If you don’t have a pumpkin, you can purchase one theirs.

The fee is worth it to watch your pumpkin get launched across the field to its doom.

Each pumpkin is marked with a number. You wait to hear your number called and then you can pull the string to catapult your pumpkin.

Just know that you might feel a little bad if you launch your pumpkin if he has googly eyes. 

Check out this video from a previous year.

Our family had a great time. I see why families make this an annual tradition. 

Don’t miss out on this fun!
