By eating pumpkin you mean sugar pumpkin? The good winter squash or pumpkin varieties last a long time and are optimal at 2-3 months of storage I believe.

They keep very well. They can be stored at 55-60 degrees and kept all winter. Too help them keep, wash them down with warm soap and water to remove any disease organisms.
