Any Local Market Where One Can Get Butternut Squash? by Pavore9: 1:04pm On Apr 13, 2015
Apart from Shoprite & co, is there any local market one can get butternut squash, it is also cultivated in Ghana so there is a possibility we have some Nigerian farmers into it. Send me a PM if you have an idea where it can be bought.

It can be cultivated in Nigeria but i am not sure if anyone does. I recently made an order for the seed from the continental importers here. It should be here by next week.

Butternut is been cultivated in one nearby farm where I have my poultry. I supply them manure. I want to go into it too, but maybe when the weather is favourable.

Is it possible to snap pictures of the butternuts growing in that farm and who do they sell their produce to?
Re: Any Local Market Where One Can Get Butternut Squash? by Ufeolorun(m): 4:24pm On Oct 15, 2018
Maybe late but I do grow them in large numbers for my retailers. Do you still want them?
