Squash Winter Butternut (Organic)

Butternut squash is a winter squash with a pear-shaped body, smooth, pale tan skin, and vibrant orange flesh. It measures about 8-12 inches long and weighs 2-5 pounds. The flavor is sweet, nutty, and slightly earthy, similar to pumpkin but milder, with a creamy texture when cooked. Its skin is thin enough to peel but toughens during storage. The flesh is dense, packed with beta-carotene, vitamin C, and fiber, making it nutrient-rich. Seeds inside are edible when roasted. It’s versatile—roasted, mashed, pureed for soups, or cubed in dishes. Common in fall and winter cuisines, it stores well for months in cool, dry conditions. Native to North America, it’s a staple in many recipes, from savory to sweet. Nutrient Farm Fruit are produced with the highest levels of farming stewardship.
