the farm's young boys are growing pumpkins to raise some of their own cash.

Appearance: It features a striking, luminous ivory-white skin that holds its clean color exceptionally well post-harvest. Its shape is distinctly a flattened tulip, growing roughly 6 inches wide and 4 inches tall. 

Texture: Many of the pumpkins develop light, subtle warts that add a rustic, artisanal texture to the rind. 

Size: It is a small-to-medium specialty pumpkin, typically weighing between 2 and 3 pounds. 

Growth Habit: The plant grows as a semi-bush variety, meaning it takes up less space in the field than sprawling, aggressive giant pumpkin vines.
