Ordon Pumpkins are objects from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Besides Milk and cheese from Ordon Goats, the people of Ordon Village balance their diet by growing Ordon Pumpkins. They are not much different from real world pumpkins except for their bell shape and fast rate of growth. Link can smash Ordon Pumpkins to obtain ammo for his slingshot.
At the beginning of the game, Jaggle will yell at Link for wasting food if he smashes one. After smashing an Ordon Pumpkin, a smaller pumpkin grows where the original was, but if Link sets one down instead of smashing it, another will not grow. Small pumpkins cannot be smashed or picked up, but Link can douse one with water from a bottle to make it grow instantly. Also, lifting mature Ordon Pumpkins will sometimes reveal Rupees where the pumpkin had been. Ordon Pumpkins are used as the heads of scarecrows.
An Ordon Pumpkin can be found in the Snowpeak Ruins and is one of the ingredients used to make Yeto's Soup, which Yeto makes to help his wife Yeta recover from her sickness.
