Winter Squash, Ofelia Butternut

Farm Original! Ofelia Butternut is the result of many years of on-farm butternut squash breeding at Care of the Earth Community Farm. In many ways, Ofelia is a classic butternut squash: slightly bulbous, 3 pound, tan-skinned butternut-shaped squash with good Brix, good dry matter content, and good storage ability. Where Ofelia shines is in the field. Ofelia was bred for high productivity in East TN! Plants have medium-length, fairly determinate vines and resist heat, drought, and significant Downy Mildew pressure. Say goodbye to teeny-tiny butternut squash and give Ofelia a try! Named in honor of Lalo’s mom, Ofelia. OSSI-Pledged Variety. 100 days from TP
