Gardeners of Rome will hold its Big Pumpkin/Giant Sunflower Contest with some changes this year — tomatoes.

There are two age groups: ages 5-11 and 12-17 as of June 15. One set of free pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds or a tomato plant will be distributed to anyone in that age group who fills out a contest application.

Location for pick up is Ace Hardware on Saturday, May 23 from 10-11 a.m.  Those not able to pick up seeds or plants at that time should contact Debbie at 315-339-2050 to make other arrangements.
