Beth,
I don't have any butternuts in storage, but I do have acorns, and they are
starting to wrinkle, or shrivel up. I've eaten a few, but they just don't
taste as good as they did earlier. I don't know much about winter storage of
veggies, but I think I would have been better off growing Hubbard's, or one
of the other squash specifically for long term storage. I think butternuts
and acorns are good for about 3 months?

Carla,
Perkins, OK, where we are preparing to be snowed in. Again.
