Take your skin off
The easiest way to get the skin off the pumpkin is to slice it into chunks (removing seeds and stringy parts with a large spoon. You can either steam it in a steamer or put water in a large roaster just to cover the bottom of the roaster with a wire rack and place the pumpkin (with skin) on the rack. Cook at 350 degrees for approximately 10 - 15 minutes. You can check by poking a fork through the skin. Take out and cool. Then peel off the skin. This is also a good technique for Hubbard squash that has a very tough skin.

The mask you need is on a scarecrow after you complete Snoopy's Flying Ace adventure. There is no mask in the pumpkin patch. You can create a costumizer version (which does not help on the quest) by pressing the three keys Ctrl+Shift+P, and the same to take it off.
Pumpkins turn orange off the vine due to a process called carotenoid accumulation, where the pigment in the pumpkin skin changes color when exposed to sunlight.
