Adult and child growers of giant pumpkins competed for top honors at 4-H Fall Cloverfest on Saturday at Flag Is Up Farms in Solvang. Above, Aiden Fox, 3, who lives in Lompoc, accepts a ribbon for winning second place in the youth pumpkin division of a pumpkin growing contest. The Four Leaf Clover Foundation sponsored the contest for gigantic orange orbs to raise funds for camperships to Santa Barbara County 4-H Camp Wahoo! as well as college scholarships for 4-H youths. Along with the giant pumpkin contest, Cloverfest also included a wide assortment of carnival game booths operated by the county’s 15 individual 4-H Clubs  to raise funds for expenses. Proceeds from a barbecue  are going to support activities of the Santa Barbara County 4-H Club Council.
