As you loyal readers know, I officiated at the Lower Makefield Farmers’ Market Zucchini Races on August 12th. What fun! It’s mostly kids making the racers (with a few experienced adults). The entries were creative with great names (“Unbeetable,” “Speed Buggy,” “The Bo Mobile”). Here are the results. See the photo slideshow for some great shots of the contestants, then watch the short video of the final, championship race. I am determined to make this a county-wide event next year, sponsored by Bucks County Taste. Start designing your zucchini racers now! See our previous post for the rules.
