Pumpkins for Halloween!

Until the end of October, you can pick out a beautiful pumpkin to bring home just in time for Halloween!

 

Did you know that pumpkins are not vegetables, but fruits? Surprising, isn’t it? Indeed, this type of squash belonging to the Cucurbitaceae family contains seeds (very succulent when roasted, by the way), which classifies the pumpkin as a fruit.

 

At Verger Champêtre, pumpkins are among the various fruits and vegetables available for autopicking. From the beginning of September to the end of October, it is possible to come and harvest your pumpkin with your family, in anticipation of Halloween, which is fast approaching!

 

Then, after your pumpkin picking, you can take it home to cut it up and decorate it as you wish and then put it on your doorstep as a decoration for the candy trick-or-treating on October 31st.

 

We are waiting for you for the pumpkin picking that will continue until the end of October!

 

Happy Halloween!
