Pumpkins
Check out the types of pumpkins available for sale at Kazimour Farm & Orchard below.
In partnership with Metro High School steam students, the GROW team has successfully raised and will harvest fall pumpkins! Metro students nurtured seedlings in their on-site greenhouse, then planted them at the GROW orchard.

Kandy Korn
These one-pound cuties are perfect for fall table decorating and their early arrival (usually two weeks ahead of larger varieties) gives you time to enjoy their beauty.
Porcelain Princess
These spooky beauties may appear ghoulish, but these deeply ribbed fruits make for mouth-watering holiday side dishes. Weighing in at 7–10 lbs., the princess can admirably ornament the dinner table, too.
Sanchez Hybrid
Add this squat, textured and fabulously warty pumpkin to your porch décor to cast a spooky spell on visitors as well as other jack-o-lanterns and gourds. After Halloween, Sanchez can be roasted for a great side dish.
Triple Treat
Triple Treat lives up to its name … carving, pies, and seeds, oh my! This pumpkin makes a great jack-o-lantern! Save the hull-less seeds which are tasty raw or toasted and the thick, deep orange flesh is great for pies.
Pumpkin Pricing
Pricing varies based on pumpkin size, ranging from $2.00 for smaller pumpkins to $10.00 for larger ones.
Guidelines if Touring the Orchard
Tips for a Great Orchard Experience:
-
- Grounds: Please watch when walking as turf may be uneven and for produce on the ground (apples, pumpkins)
- Dress: Wear comfortable shoes instead of open-toe sandals. Long-sleeve shirts can help protect you from scratches and flying insects.
- As we move later into the season, you may want to bring earmuffs or hats and coats in case the orchard is cooler than expected.
Orchard Etiquette:
-
- Children: We encourage families to experience the orchard, but please plan to always have a parent with your child. There are a lot of places to explore so keep close watch as little ones can wander off
- Ladders: Are for GROW use only
- Farm Equipment: Please do not climb on or touch farm equipment. Many machines have sharp edges and moving parts.
- Tree Climbing: While tempting, please don’t climb the trees; the trees can be easily damaged.
- Please don’t throw or discard fruit
