The listing, waltham buttrnut squash ferry-morse has ended.
Waltham is a winter squash, but one of its great secrets is that it can also be harvested young and eaten like a summer squash -- tender and toothsome, skin and all! When allowed to mature, it reaches about 8 or 9 inches long and up to 4 inches diameter around its plump "bulb end." (Expect it to weigh in at an impressive 4 to 5 pounds.)
