PUMPKIN PLANT GIVEAWAY!
In an effort to be sure people are getting their pumpkins started early enough to be ready for the Fall season, we decided to do a pumpkin plant giveaway this year.
As a quick education for those who don’t know, pumpkins are associated with the Fall season because they are a winter (or storage) squash, meaning they traditionally provide food in the winter months. This is in comparison to something like a zucchini which is a summer squash eaten fresh and cannot be stored long term.
This year we are giving away 4” potted pumpkin plants while supplies last (one per person). NO PURCHASE IS REQUIRED! We just thought it would be fun to get people growing pumpkins this year. 😊 (Feel free to send photos to [email protected]!)
587 7th Street, Norco | Thursday, Friday & Saturday from 9AM to 6PM through June 6th.
Carving - The classic pumpkin for carving.
Jarrahdale – This pumpkin is from Australia, where the majority of pumpkins are actually a similar blue hue, rather than orange. The pumpkin is deeply ribbed and the orange flesh has been called one of the best for pumpkin pies. 6-10 pounds (though it may grow up to 20).
Lumina - White skinned pumpkin with a smooth texture and sweet flavor. Developed for ornamental and culinary purposes, Lumina is a favorite among gardeners and chefs. 10-20 pounds.
Jack Be Little - This tiny pumpkin fits into the palm of your hand. Flat and ribbed.
Musquee de Provence - Large, flat pumpkin shaped like a large wheel of cheese. It is heavily lobed and ribbed. The flesh is deep orange, thick, and very fine flavored. Grows to about 20 pounds.
Seminole - The small fruits of this variety are sweeter than Butternut and have firm, deep-orange flesh that can keep up to one year at room temperature! We had one customer tell us she had 22 fruits from one plant!
