The Connecticut Field pumpkin is a historic heirloom variety dating back to the 1700s, traditionally grown by Native Americans and among the earliest cultivated pumpkins in the United States. It produces large, round, bright orange fruits with shallow ribbing, typically weighing 15–25 pounds. Well-suited for gardens across much of North America, it thrives in full sun, well-drained soil, and requires ample space for its long vines to spread. With a maturity time of about 100–110 days, this variety benefits from consistent watering and mulching to retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Connecticut Field pumpkins are widely used for carving, seasonal decoration, and in cooking—especially for pies and purees—thanks to their classic shape and flavorful flesh.
