Storing pumkins for the winter


After a whole week of rain, I have manged to go back to the garden this afternoon to see what could be eaten or stored.

I have picked my pumpkins and butternut squashes to store for the winter.

It is best to put them away before the cold weather. The frost would 'kill' them.

I am quit proud of my crop this year!

Anyone who has recipes with pumpkins, please feel free to contribute!

If you are looking for some seeds in France, butternut squashes are called Noix de beurre.
They are unusual in France so it might be easier to get a packet of seeds from the UK.

If you live in Brittany, I would be happy to share my seeds with you.
