Farmer John Muller is a charmer. His family has tilled the soil in Half Moon Bay, CA for three generations. Here he talks about the history of pumpkin farming. He also reflects on how today's small pumpkin farmers work to survive by planting heirloom pumpkin crops.
WIth the earnestness and humor he brings to the rest of the piece, he relates what he loves best about his job: "Pumpkins are like people. They come in all different sizes, shapes and colors."
