Our decorative gourds usually mature in early September to early October so this would be an excellent time to purchase gourds if you intend to dry them yourself.
Depending upon the variety and size, green gourds can take 3 to 7 months to dry. We try to keep a good assortment of dried gourds available for sale throughout the year but it would always be a good idea to call my cell phone (636-387-2695) before driving any distance to make sure that I will be at the farm when you plan to arrive and to check out availability.
