~ this seed does not ship to Canada ~
Jack Straw is the classic jack o’ lantern pumpkin with a solid handle, easy to grow with powdery mildew to make sure you have glorious pumpkins for the fall!
We love Organic Jack Straw Pumpkin for their whimsical diversity, as well. With boisterous pumpkins 8 to 14” tall with a satisfyingly smooth, oblong shape, each one is unique, easy to carve and we hope that you do!
