There is no one set price. The price varies by season, location, and availiability. [1] But pumpkins tend to be priced by the pound. Last year, in the Chicago area, that price tended to be around $0.44 per pound. And it was an increase of $0.10 per pound from 2006. [2] For pumpkins can generally be counted on to see a 2-3% increase each year in their prices. [3] The prices reflect increases in freight costs. [4] And they reflect weather, particularly the effects of moisture and temperature. For example, drought and heat tend to make for smaller harvests and higher prices. Also cooler temperatures tend to produce greater numbers of pumpkins on the vine. But the pumpkins all tend to be smaller. [5] Pumpkin prices also vary depending upon the origin and type of pumpkins. For example, Jack-o-lantern style pumpkins have Halloween appeal. But their traditionally solid market is being encroached upon by attractive, smaller heirloom varieties from Australia and Italy. And that competition is profiting from a wider timespan of appeal than that for Jack-o-lanterns. [6] The USDA makes available lists of pumpkin prices, every January.
