Carver Pumpkins

Also known as Jack O'Lanterns, carver pumpkins typically weigh between 10-50lbs although most of our varieties average between 15-30lbs. Carver pumpkins also typically have thinner skin and thin walls, which makes them easier to carve designs into than culinary pumpkins, which normally have walls 2-4 times thicker than a carver.
