Pumpkin Everything: Where Was it Filmed?
‘Pumpkin Everything’ was filmed primarily in Manitoba, specifically in Winnipeg and Morden. The fifth-most populous province in Canada, Manitoba offers a varied selection of incredible backdrops as it has modern metropolitan cities and small, charming towns within just a few miles of each other. Well, let’s take a detailed look at the filming locations, shall we?
Winnipeg, Manitoba
‘Pumpkin Everything’ was lensed in Winnipeg, Manitoba’s capital and largest city. It is a modern metropolitan that sits on the Red and Assiniboine rivers’ confluence and is surrounded by beautiful nature on all sides. The movie portrays Amy as a small-town girl who has left her home to live in the big city for better opportunities. Winnipeg stands in for the big city in the movie, as a few scenes have been shot on the city roads. Furthermore, the cast and crew utilized several indoor and outdoor locations in and around Winnipeg, giving them the bustling city vibe they were looking for.
Since Winnipeg is quite a modern city, it provides film crews with all kinds of amenities and facilities that one might require. Moreover, the entire city is interspersed with green areas that add to the varying backdrops one can use for shooting. Hence, it is no surprise that the city has hosted numerous productions like ‘Nobody,’ ‘Run,’ and ‘Violent Night.’
Morden, Manitoba
Some portions of the movie were taped in Morden, a city in Southern Manitoba. It is considered one of the fastest-growing cities in the region. Although Morden is classified as a city, the pace gives off a charming small-town vibe that the producers of ‘Pumpkin Everything’ were looking for. Hence, most outdoor scenes in Amy’s hometown and a few scenes inside the pumpkin-themed shop were shot on location in Morden. Since it is a rapidly growing city, it provides production crews with ample facilities while offering a quaint and charming small-town vibe, making it a popular shooting destination.

Some of Cole’s other notable works include ‘The Event,’ ‘CSI: Miami,’ ‘The Glades,’ ‘The Originals,’ ‘Salvation,’ and ‘Ruby Herring Mysteries.’ On the other hand, Corey Sevier plays Kit in ‘Pumpkin Everything.’ The actor is known for his performances in ‘2030 CE,’ ‘Wild Card,’ ‘North Shore,’ ‘Cedar Cove,’ and ‘Mistresses.’
