An autumn staple, pumpkins are grown for both decorative and edible purposes. Pumpkins come in many shapes, sizes, colors and uses. From carving to baking you will find several varieties that will meet your needs.

The Cinderella is an excellent pumpkin for canning or baking pies and pumpkin bread as it has a great eating quality! This pumpkin variety is an heirloom variety from France that was selected out of the older variety, Rouge vif d'Etampes. Cinderella has deep ridges and exceptional flatening, making it a beautiful decoration for Halloween and other other fall festivities. This variety's vines are very productive with pumpkins that have grooved, thick walls.

Howden pumpkins are a classic variety known for their ideal characteristics for both carving and decoration. Typically round and medium to large in size, these pumpkins can weigh between 10 to 30 pounds, featuring a smooth, bright orange skin that is easy to carve. Their sturdy, thick walls provide excellent structure for carving, making them a popular choice for Halloween decorations. Developed in the 1960s, Howden pumpkins have become a favorite among growers for their reliable yields and disease resistance. The flesh is sweet and can be used in pies and other dishes, although they are primarily sought after for their aesthetic appeal during the fall season. These pumpkins thrive in well-drained soil and full sun, requiring a growing period of about 90-120 days from planting to harvest. They are typically ready for picking in late summer to early fall, just in time for Halloween and Thanksgiving festivities. Howden pumpkins' vibrant color, robust shape, and versatility make them a staple in autumn decorations and culinary applications alike.

Naked Bear is a highly productive, dual-purpose pumpkin bred for exceptional seed yields and quality.
