• Pumpkins were once recommended for removing freckles and curing snake bites.
• Pumpkins are used to make soups, pies and breads.
• Pumpkins range in size from less than a pound to over I.(XX) pounds.
• Colonists sliced off pumpkin tips; removed seeds and filled the insides with milk, spices and honey.
This was baked in hot ashes and is the origin of pumpkin pie.
• In early colonial times, pumpkins were used as an ingredient for the crust of pies, not the filling.
• The name pumpkin originated from "pepon" - the Greek word for "large melon."
Native Americans used pumpkin seeds for food and medicine.
