Traditional Carved Pumpkin with a Smile
Carving faces into harvested squashes is a classic Halloween tradition. A round pumpkin with carved eyes, a nose, and a gentle smile represents the welcoming side of festive autumn decorations. These decorated squashes are often placed on porches and windowsills to celebrate the fall season.
Interesting Facts About Pumpkins
Pumpkins belong to the gourd family and are technically berries because they develop from flowers and contain seeds. Although most people associate them with October festivities, farmers grow them throughout the summer months. The tradition of carving faces originated in Ireland, where people initially used turnips and beets before discovering American squashes.
