Locally grown, beautiful, colorful Pumpkins and Gourds!

NYC loves their pumpkins! 

We've self-branded our large Exotic Gourds as Funky Pumpkins.

These eccentric gourds are as big or bigger than a Face Pumpkin, have a funky look, a multitude of shades, and a cornucopia of shapes and sizes!

A pumpkin is a cultivar of the squash plant, most commonly of Cucurbita pepo, that is round, with smooth, slightly ribbed skin, and deep yellow to orange coloration. 

The thick shell contains the seeds and pulp.

The color of pumpkins is derived from the orange pigments abundant in them.

The main nutrients are lutein and both alpha and beta carotene, the latter of which generates vitamin A in the body.

The word pumpkin originates from the word pepon, which is Greek for “large melon", something round and large.

The French adapted this word to pompon, which the British changed to pumpion and later American colonists changed that to the word that is used today, "pumpkin".

Pumpkins, like other squash, are native to North America.

Pumpkins are widely grown for commercial use, and are used both in food and recreation.

A Gourd is any of the hard-shelled ornamental fruits of certain members of the gourd family, Cucurbitaceae.

Many gourds are cultivated as ornamentals or food crops, and some can be dried and used to make utensils, cups, bottles, scoops, ladles, fishnet floats, whistles, rattles, pipes, birdhouses, and other useful objects!
