50 days to harvest Cucurbita pepo

Where do we begin? The flavor, the story, the abundance or the near spinelessness?

If you’re ready for the long story, dive in on our blog. If you don’t have time for it all, know this: We are so thankful for the countless generations of humans and plants co-evolving to lay the foundation for Fruition to collaborate with Norwich Meadows Farm (regional and organic!) and a land-grant university to co-create the most flavorful zucchini we’ve ever eaten. Imagine exceptional nuttiness with a creamy density that melts in your mouth — you won’t be tossing these in neighbor’s mailboxes, we suspect.

Would you love to receive these seeds? Rather than selling and shipping, we share seeds as an embodied gift practice.
