Autumn icons, larger than life! In its second year, Adam Bierton returns for the Fall-O-Ween season finale to carve a giant pumpkin. From last year’s 2,424-lb. pumpkin, a dragon’s head emerged after 16 hours of scraping, chiseling, carving, and detailing. This year, Adam Bierton and a team of carvers return to once again transform a giant pumpkin sourced by the Great Pumpkin Commonwealth into an organic masterpiece.
Three of the largest pumpkins in the world are coming to NYBG. They will be on display at the Reflecting Pool and one will be carved by Adam Bierton and his team.
