The listing, Small Sugar Pie Pumpkin Seeds (10) Baking Pumpkin has ended.

Small Sugar (Cucurbita pepo) aka Pie Pumpkin

Sugar Pies are the modern baking pumpkin. If you want to bake pies, and want a pumpkin instead of squash, this is the pumpkin for you! The skin is very thin, the flesh is sweeter and substantially finer grained than the typical jack-o-lantern type pumpkin (they were bred for thick rinds and stability when carved . . . not eating!). It is also quite dry which makes for a more stable pie.
