These are real pumpkins that the children have carefully grown for Halloween. If stored properly, they should last for about two months from harvest, so they should not rot before Halloween. Please check the product images for any existing scratches (already hardened) that occurred during growth. ・We will ship using bubble wrap for cushioning and recycled cardboard boxes. ・Please enjoy them in a well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight. ・We have dried the pumpkins after harvesting before listing them, but as they are real, raw pumpkins, they may rot before Halloween depending on the degree of drying and individual differences. ・As these are agricultural products grown in a field, there may be insects inside the pumpkins. Please be aware of this. ・Not for consumption. #pumpkin #Halloween #jackolantern #real #vegetable
