Robb's secret weapon, a combination of good genetics, raised beds to keep things clean and a 30 fence to ward off any hungry moose. His winning Cavage this year was the closest anyone has come to his own world record of 138.25 pounds. Set back in. 2012. It's not just about the big names though. Nine-year-old Paul Dinkle snagged second place with a 98.2 pound Cavage continuing a family tradition. Brian Schinsky's, a five time champ himself, came in third. Even the junior division saw some impressive growth, with Hunter Sterling taking the top spot for the second year running.

official vegetable of Alaska. This legislative nod to our cruciferous friend comes just as these giants are on display at the fair. The winning Cavages and many others will be there for everyone to see until the fair wraps up. While Robb's victory is impressive, it's the passion for growing these massive vegetables that really shines through. From season champions to first time growers, the Alaska State Fair Cavage Way Off is a testament to dedication, a little bit of science, and a whole lot of green thumb power.
