Shareholders already got their first winter squash, primarily acorn and carnival squash (a cross between acorn and sweet dumpling). As you probably know, we have several different varieties of winter squash and pumpkins. They have different rates of maturation and some of them are doing better than others. In any event, do not expect huge pumpkins.
This coming week shareholders will probably be getting spaghetti squash, as well as some more acorn and carnival. Our acorn squash should be eaten within two months, but they will taste better if you let them sit at room temperature for about ten days or so. If you have a choice, it is better to pick an acorn squash with a deep yellow (or almost orangy) spot.
Enjoy!
