Autumn Buckskin

This big, buff colored pumpkin also carries a little bit of history- and the seeds of one of the most storied squash in the U.S. A hybrid of Dickinson, the pumpkin for pumpkin pie, it was bred for a sweet, deep orange flesh with high sugars. It also makes a lovely ornamental.

Wisconsin Cheese

Linked to cheese through appearance only, the Long Island Cheese Pumpkin has been revered for centuries thanks to its smooth flesh and string-less interior. It’s one of the oldest squashes domesticated for food, which we think speaks well for its taste and grow-ability.

Fun Facts and Tips

  • Did you know pumpkins have been grown in North America for almost 5,000 years? It’s a lot of fun to grow this American native. 
  • The English word zucchini actually comes from zucca, the Italian word for pumpkins, gourds and squash. Try zucca in risotto, or grate it and add to gnocchi.
  • When picking a pumpkin for carving, look for a pumpkin with a strong stem that sits flat on the ground so your jack-o'-lantern sits up straight.
  • Pick it up from the bottom. You never want to pick up or carry a pumpkin by its stem. It is not a handle, and may break.
  • The pumpkin should feel sturdy. When you tap it, you should hear a hollow sound.
  • Turn the pumpkin upside down. Poke and prod with your thumbs to see if feels firm. If it’s not firm, the pumpkin will rot too quickly.
