Pumpkins often are only associated with the holiday season. But growers know these colorful cucurbits are so much more than that. Vegetable seed breeders and suppliers facilitate this by pushing the envelope with different and unique varieties. The 2023 Hall (NY) Field Days gave us a chance to see this work up close. I visited the annual trials and took videos of seed breeders talking about several new pumpkins growers should consider. Scan the slideshow below to view short video descriptions of each.
