Images released by the farm stand -- which has been operating at the location for more than 100 years -- shows dozens of pumpkins missing from the normally pristine lines of produce.

Kuehn said that the stolen pumpkins would have likely sold for between $2,500 and $3,000.

The family is offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

Anyone with information on the pumpkin thieves should call the Wayne Police Department at 973-633-3530.
