PUMPKIN SMASHING: Pumpkin Destruction: The Season Finale will be noon to 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday at Kuchta Farms, 4785 state Route 82, Newton Falls. The pumpkins have done their job and now it's time to send them off in spectacular fashion with pumpkin smashing. Participants can step into the Pumpkin Smash Zone and see how much destruction you can make in one minute. People can use a hammer, mallet, bat or another smashing tool and smash, crush and splatter as many pumpkins as you can before time runs out. The activity is part of the general admission, which allows people to come back for another round as many times as they would like throughout your visit. Younger children can also take part in the Little Smashers area, featuring kid-sized pumpkins and rubber mallets. There also will be wagon rides and a trip through the corn maze. The Pumpkin Smash Zone and Little Smashers area are included with paid farm admission.
