SQUASH-HOW CANADIAN EH!

Squash family have many varieties. A wonderful Fall and Winter vegetable thanks to our First Nations people. When the white man settled in Canada, learning to eat and grow the food that was indigenous to the land was often necessary. Squash can stand the first frost and store well in a cold cellar or back basement as well as the fridge. It is a very healthy food too. Tasty- each kind has its own distinct flavour.  Add it to the list of foods that Canadians love and eat!  Can you name the variety seen in the picture??
