When it comes to fall classics, you just can’t beat the good ol’ carving pumpkin. These big, bright orange beauties are perfect for transforming into the best jack-o’-lanterns on the block.

Calling all pie lovers! If you dream of making homemade pumpkin pies that’ll have everyone coming back for seconds, pie pumpkins are your best buddy. These smaller pumpkins (sometimes called field trip pumpkins) are perfect for baking with their smooth texture and natural sweetness, they’re great for pies, purees, soups, or even pumpkin bread. But wait, there’s more—they’re cute enough to double as a centerpiece or to add a rustic touch to your fall décor.

Each one has its own unique look and history, making them perfect for adding some serious charm to your fall setup. And don’t just admire them—many heirlooms taste just as good as they look! Roast them, bake them, or turn them into a hearty fall soup.
