Other: Golden Hubbard is an heirloom winter squash. The large orange teardrop shaped fruit weighs an average of 12 pounds. Their hard shells make them great for storing, and they can be stored for up to 6 months. The Golden Hubbard is not as sweet as the Blue Hubbard, and has more of a squash taste. Enjoy them in souops, steamed, baked, mashed, or pureed. Hubbard Squash is also very ornamental, and makes a wonderful fall decoration!
