About Our Bulk Pumpkin Seeds
Our wholesale pumpkin seeds are wonderfully tasty, with a nutty flavor and delicate, chewy texture. The culinary use of this tiny seed can be traced as far back as the Aztec culture. Over the last several centuries, it has spread to other parts of the globe. Its rich flavor and nutritional benefits show its popularity.
Pumpkin seeds, also commonly known as “pepitas,” have been long valued as a source of zinc, vitamin E, and antioxidants. This makes our pumpkin seeds a perfect snack or healthy addition to many culinary creations.
Pumpkin Seed Uses
- Our bulk pumpkin seeds are perfect for enjoying raw as a healthy snack or meal addition, but can also be lightly toasted in a 300-degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes to add a nice crunch to salads, soups, or even hummus and other dips.
- Seeds make a healthful addition to oatmeal and smoothies. They make for a healthy boost mixed into baked goods, trail mix, and granola bars.
- Blend seeds with a small amount of oil and a pinch of salt for creamy pumpkin seed butter, a great alternative to peanut and other nut butter.
- One of our favorite ways to prepare pumpkin seeds is to toss them in a bit of cooking oil and maple syrup, spread them in a single layer on a lined baking pan, and lightly roast them for a sweet yet savory and crunchy topping on soups-like pumpkin or butternut squash, or mixed into a salad with greens, dried cranberries, and balsamic vinaigrette.
Bulk Pumpkin Seed Storage
We’ve found that the best storage method is in an airtight container or heavy-duty plastic bag in a cool, dry area making for the freshest seed. Pumpkin seeds have a shelf life of about three months when stored at room temperature. In the fridge or freezer, however, seeds will keep fresh for up to 1 year.

Pumpkin seeds are rich in healthy fats, zinc, magnesium, and potassium. Our Bulk Pumpkin Seeds are a good source of antioxidants and may help reduce inflammation and high blood pressure.
