Our 2023 winter squash harvest is now in the books. We grew 4 varieties, and planted 8 plants of each variety 4 separate beds. Here is a list of the varieties we chose and their respective yields from each 50 square foot bed.

Red Kuri Squash 99.6lbs
Prism Butternut Squash 92.2 lbs
Jester Delicata Squash 51.9 lbs
Sweet Mama Squash 92.8 lbs

There are a few crops that could still give us a higher yield per square foot, but none that could be grown with so little effort AND such a high return. When you also consider how easy it is to store winter squash for several months even without refrigeration, it becomes obvious why it is a top recommendation for any gardeners wanting to minimize their labour in the garden, keep food storage simple, and maximize their yield at the same time.

If you have winter squash varieties to recommend to your fellow gardeners, or better yet, yield per square foot data to share with us all, please leave a comment.
