We sow the greatest variety of pumpkin seeds we can find that include impressive favourites such as Turks Turban, Flat White Boer, Dill’s Atlantic Giant, Big Moon, Queensland Blue and Halloween. Early autumn we start harvesting the pumpkins we planted in spring. Apart from roasting them whole, this is a favourite way for our chefs to serve up these autumn favourites.
