Pumpkin, Sugar Pie

  • $4.00

Description

Cucurbita pepo

A delicious li'l pie pumpkin, this little cutie has sweet, smooth-textured flesh. Excellent for baking into pies. Grower Rich Felton is able to get mature fruits from these plants in the cold, high desert of Rawlins, Wyoming.

Squashes and pumpkins are a part of the vast agricultural and culinary legacy of this continent, with indigenous seedkeepers in modern-day Mexico and Central America cultivating some types at least 10,000 years ago. Along with their sisters corn and beans, they spread throughout the western hemisphere through the loving care of Native Americans and by the time European colonizers arrived on the continent, many varieties of squash were being grown by farmers from the southwest to the northeast. We owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the original stewards of the nutrient-packed, long-keeping, healthy-seed-spawning miracle that is a squash! 

25 seeds.

Seeds grown by Rich Felton in Rawlins, Wyoming and Swift River Farm in Salmon, Idaho.

Directions: Direct seed after frost, or start indoors 4-6 weeks before frost and transplant after frost. Provide full sun.
