Meet Kris Farley — volunteer firefighter, engineer, and all-around holiday hero from Tolland. Kris is famous for his epic lawn displays — including a 30-foot inflatable pumpkin that’s become a local landmark and selfie hotspot every fall.
But last week, disaster struck. The giant pumpkin deflated in the front yard — a heartbreaking moment for Kris and everyone who’s come to love his larger-than-life decorations.
The good news? The community rallied behind him. Within hours, donations poured in to help replace the pumpkin, proving that Tolland’s spirit is just as big as Kris’s holiday displays.
Kris joined Christine and Salt to share how his front-yard favorite is rising again — and why he says nothing can stop the Halloween magic from continuing. 🎃💪
