25,000 pumpkins planted
Tom's Life of Tom video documents planting 25,000 pumpkins.
Making history on the 110
On 21 May 2025 Life of Tom published "Making History on The 110 Acre Farm!! (Planting 25,000 Pumpkins!)" — a 56-minute video that became one of the farm's best-known uploads. Its description calls it the big day after "months of preparation" and asks: "Can we pull off the impossible and attempt to grow a pumpkin patch?"
From Minecraft to a real field
The video opens on Tuesday 20 May with Tom presenting "25,000 pumpkin seeds being planted". He links it straight back to his gaming roots: years ago he built pumpkin farms in Minecraft, and never thought he'd be doing it for real.
For long-time Syndicate viewers it was a full-circle moment — the creator who grew pixel pumpkins on a gaming channel was now planting a field of them on 110 acres.
What the number means
25,000 is a planting figure. It isn't a harvest total and it isn't a visitor number. Pumpkin varieties and yields haven't been published.
What came next
The crop set up the farm's first public pumpkin event in October 2025. A second crop followed in June 2026 — see Pumpkin fields under Farm Projects.
