Can anyone recommend a source for local organic pumpkins? Looking to buy a dozen or so. Prefer East Valley locale but will travel if necessary

I'm guessing a place like Whole Foods might have them, perhaps from a local source.

From a local farm, you might want to call a place like Schnepf's farm in Queen Creek. They do a lot of organic:

Schnepf Farms

Thanks for the info. Cute website but unfortunately no organics. CNG (certified naturally grown) does not certify non-GMO.

I guess you did not go to the Crooked Sky website or call them. Their website says:

What we are known for:

Heirloom Tomatoes and other varieties.

I'itois Planting Onions...shipping them all over the country.

NM grown green chile! Same farm has been growning for customers over 40 years!

Lemon Cucumbers! Once you taste these you'll soon be back for more.

Pumpkins! Carving, Pie, ornamental, the list goes on.

Crooked Sky is always at the farmer's market on Northern at Central. I look forward to shopping with them every weekend.

Actually I did go to their website. There is a difference between CERTIFIED NATURALLY GROWN and CERTIFIED ORGANIC.
