We had never seen as many varieties as they offer, and wondered how many different types they grow. A lot of different kinds. You don't eat these orange pumpkins like we have here on the other side. In fact, we don't have the old cow pumpkin like we always liked to eat. But the gourds are so much better to eat than pumpkins.
Gourds are all good.
These big green ones out here by the road are good for pie. They're called Hubbard, Hubbard squash. There are a lot of different Hubbard squash too. Nienabers have been growing pumpkins and squash for 30 or 35 years. They open their stand in spring with sweet corn and tomatoes, and have produce all through the growing season.
