Back Story: David Fritts, world-class pumpkin growerFritts' focus wavers momentarily from bass and tackle. This time of year, he's in to pumpkins - big time. Back home in the Carolina Piedmont, the Fritts family is known far and wide for the quality and quantity of the pumpkins it grows: large ones and little ones in every shape, texture and hue. Pumpkins seemingly bubble out of the ground on the Fritts farm near Lexington, N.C., and most of them - upwards of 75,000 per year - will wind up on somebody's stoop at Halloween or in somebody's home at Thanksgiving as a decoration or in a pie.
