Libby's pumpkins

[greenfamilyfarms]

We grow our own eatin' pumpkins. They are different than the stringy, bright orange pumpkins at the grocery store. They are an old heritage variety that have been passed down for a while in my family. They are soooo good! You wouldn't believe the difference in the taste.

Looked those up since I've never heard of those and those are not it. I'll have to find a picture of them...

ETA: I found this picture of some of them around Grandpa's log chair. We still have some - they don't spoil as easily as other pumpkins either.

We had a shortage up here, too. I am going to process my own pumpkins from the garden this year and freeze the puree. Looking forward to it!
