Even though fall is barely underway, Prana Farms already has some formidable squash available. I've seen them bring one spectacular 70 lb. specimen (in the center of the photo) to 3 different markets this week. It makes a gorgeous display, though I wonder if it's worth all the schlepping. I do hope that someone worthy buys it one of these days.
Prana is one of the newer farms around. This is their second year farming, and their first year at the markets. They're strongly focused on biodiversity, using only heirloom seeds and planting no hybrids. It's been exciting to watch their offerings evolve over the course of the season, so to speak.
