Ripe Pumpkin in a vegetable garden.

---

The image shows a ripe pumpkin on a vegetable garden in early Autumn. When ripe, the flesh becomes hard. These vegetables are excellent for over winter storage, but must be free from any skin damage or bruising or they will not keep. If kept cool in in low light, they should keep for months
