Growing notes

Summer squash can be direct seeded on as soon as all chance of frost has passed. Or, if you want to be eating from the garden as soon as possible, seed one to two seeds per cell or pot indoors up to 4 weeks before transplanting. You can plant many successions of summer squash – the last one should be no later than three months before the first frost. Seed or transplant 2’ apart in rows 5-6’ apart.

I grew them for seed so it was hard to tell how productive they would have been had I harvested them regularly. I only ate a few. Lost a lot to slugs in the spring and had to replant twice, so got a late start. Will try again in 2027.

Hi David, good luck with them in 2027.

We're trialing and breeding new varieties!

This is the most challenging and thrilling part of our work.

The trialing allows us to test varieties of a same species side by side and determine which one(s) taste and perform the best.

Breeding and variety maintenance means selecting for traits that are desirable such as flavor, texture, disease resitance, earliness and hardiness, just to mention a few.
