Squash ~ Butternut

A beloved heirloom winter squash developed in the mid-20th century, Butternut is prized for its smooth, tan skin and richly flavored, deep orange flesh. The elongated, bell-shaped fruits have a small seed cavity and thick, fine-textured flesh that cooks to a creamy, velvety consistency. Naturally sweet with a warm, nutty flavor, it is ideal for roasting, soups, and baking. Vigorous vines are productive and store exceptionally well, providing nourishment deep into winter. Well-suited to Canadian gardens, this variety is a dependable staple for both kitchen and pantry. 90-100 days
