Family Choice
KLRU has great programs for kids and great programs for adults,
but it’s not easy to find programs that all family members
can enjoy together. Each month, KLRU identifies a Family Choice
program from our schedule that will interest and engage family
members, ages 7 and up. Keep updated on the Family Choice
program-of-the-month and ways your family can build and extend
the program through discussion and activities.

The extreme gardeners who compete at the annual Cooperstown Weigh Off have one obsessive goal -- to raise the biggest giant pumpkin in the world. These gurus of the gourd nurture their fruits through harsh weather, floods, animal attacks and even sabotage to produce glorious pumpkins of gigantic proportion. This program follows Joe Pukos and his fellow competitors through the final harrowing days of harvest and the journey across New York State with the bulging behemoths strapped into the backs of their pick-ups. Joe is a real contender -- at least until last minute rumors circulate that another grower may be set to smash the world record.
