This is how our pumpkin seeds look when we receive them. The first year we planted pumpkins we weren’t yet The Pumpkin Ranch. We were just experimenting with a 1 acre pumpkin patch and Layla was 3 years old. She was thrilled to see all of the different colors of the pumpkin seeds. She was sure we were going to have purple, pink and turquoise pumpkins!
