A Middlesex County farm is asking visitors to stop sitting on pumpkins after a recent wave of social media photo attempts.
Von Thun's Country Farm Market in South Brunswick posted a message online this week urging guests to stop recreating viral influencer poses.
The farm says pumpkins are breaking before they can be sold.
