The taste of pumpkins
According to Jeroen, organic pumpkins
According to Jeroen, organic pumpkins are tastier and sweeter than conventional pumpkins. Factors influencing the taste are not just the manner in which they are grown but also the time of harvest and the variety of course. Because in organic farming chemical fertilizers are prohibited and farmers rotate their crops, there is so much life in the soil. This means that nutrients are released in a steady and natural manner and that you can taste! Did you know the green skinned pumpkins are even better tasting than the orange ones? That is why these varieties are so popular in Japan and South America.
