Choosing the Right Pumpkin

Selecting the right pumpkin is crucial for your fall festivities, and at Tilly's Farm, we provide tips to help you find the perfect one:

• Color: Look for vibrant orange pumpkins; the richer the color, the riper the fruit.
• Shape: Choose a shape that suits your needs; round ones are great for carving, while flat ones are perfect for decorating.
