Default What to do with leftover pumpkin?

Drove by a pumpkin patch today, and they had all the leftover pumpkins by the side of the road for FREE!!!! I swear, there were at least 500 pumpkins left, no joke. Plus, 20-30 bales of hay, also free. Kindof wished I had a truck and a friend with a farm, would have been great! Also would have been nice to grab, like, 30, and use them as a classroom art project for Thanksgiving or something, alas, no teacher friends either.

As it was, I grabbed 5 large pumpkins figuring with the canned pumpkin shortage, I'd make some of my own filling/puree. Problem- I have no idea how to do this.... Any suggestions? Or, thoughts of how to use the pumpkins in general? Can I freeze any of it?
