  • To ensure the best germination, the temperature must be at least 20C. Sow the seed point-side down 1.5 cm deep in small pots in peat-free compost. Plant outdoors 90 cm apart from late May to avoid frosts.

    Sow indoors: April to early June

    Plant outdoors: Late May to July

    Harvesting time: September to October

    Check out our Grow & Cook section for more growing tips.

  • This squash is ideal for baking due to its excellent, sweet taste and firm, floury texture. It can also be used in soups and stews or roasted as a savoury vegetable.

    We love making an old-fashioned pumpkin pie using Highbank Orchard organic apple syrup (made in Kilkenny) instead of maple syrup.
