Butternut Squash Seeds

Butternut Squash also known in Australia and New Zealand as Butternut pumpkin, is a popular winter squash. The sweet, nutty taste of this squash is similar to that of a pumpkin. The butternut and other related species of squash originate from in and around Mexico. This is different from pumpkins or "winter squash", which originate in South America.

Our Organic Butternut Squash Seeds will provide you with deliciously sweet winter squash. This squash is wonderful by itself or for pies or soups.

Butternut squash fruits are long, light-tan and bottle-shaped with a round seed cavity. The finely-grained golden-orange flesh is sure to please the whole family!

Butternut Squash is high in fiber, vitamin C, manganese, magnesium, and potassium. It is also an excellent source of vitamin A! Butternut squash is favored for its long term winter storage potential and is said to be the "most dependable 3-6lb winter storage squash".
