"The tragic reality is that very few sustainable systems are designed or applied by those who hold power, and the reason for this is obvious and simple: to let people arrange their own food, energy and shelter is to lose economic and political control over them. We should cease to look to power structures, hierarchical systems, or governments to help us, and devise ways to help ourselves." - Bill Mollison

A New GM Spaghetti Squash Hybrid?

A new genetically modified squash with genes spliced with those of a polar unicellular prokaryotic microorganism? Has spaghetti squash been crossed with Arctic bacterium and designed to grow in the frigid boreal gardens of the north?


Probably not, most likely a sorry bit of April 1st foolishness from someone who is ready for spring to come. Perhaps the first signs of cabin fever are setting in.

Where did you get the seeds for those squash? I'm always disappointed with the watery ones I grow. Yours look great!

Hi Christin - We bought this spaghetti squash through - Ed Hume Seeds. They grow and store really well for us.
