It’s not hard to find a green pumpkin if you know what you’re looking for! We found some at a local farm, and love them… they’re reminiscent of Frankenstein!
Called Jarrahdale, they’re supposed to be really good to eat.

Now you can update your picture and it’s still Halloween! :D

Just as an FYI, Japanese pumpkins (also known as “kabocha”) are green…in color, at least. Of course, they don’t look exactly like the pumpkins we’re used to seeing, but they taste the same, and would potentially serve your purpose of having found a “green” pumpkin.
Try googling them :)
