009 Halloween special - All about Pumkins

Happy Halloween and welcome to episode 9. Today Rachel Atkins tells you everything you ever needed to know about Pumpkins. Growing advice, tricks and treats, varieties, harvesting, storing and carving. Did you know? Jack O' Lanterns were originally carved out of turnips, a Celtic tradition of warding off evil spirits. Pumpkins became the preferred choice only when Irish emigrants arrived in the US and saw that pumpkins had so much more potential for carving.   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
