Grow a dependable, long-storing staple with Waltham Butternut Squash—an excellent choice for roasting, soups, and long-term food use.

This heirloom variety is known for its smooth tan skin, rich orange flesh, and naturally sweet flavor. Waltham Butternut produces consistent yields and stores well after harvest, making it a practical addition to any garden focused on both fresh meals and extended use.

These seeds are 100% heirloom, non-GMO, and open-pollinated, allowing you to grow, harvest, and replant your crop season after season as part of a self-sufficient garden.

Planting Instructions

Winter squash requires warm soil, space to spread, and a full growing season:

  • Planting Time: Sow seeds about 2 weeks after the last frost
  • Soil Temperature: Plant once soil reaches around 70°F
  • Planting Depth: Sow seeds about 1 inch deep
  • Spacing: Plant seeds about 4 inches apart in hills or mounds
  • Sunlight: Full sun required for best growth
  • Soil Conditions: Prefers warm, fertile soil
  • Moisture: Keep soil evenly moist; mulch to help retain moisture
  • Growth Period: Allow approximately 85 days for full maturity

Harvesting Instructions

Proper timing ensures both flavor and long-term storage quality:

  • Time to Harvest: Approximately 85 days from planting
  • Ripeness Indicator: Stems turn a light yellow-green and harden
  • Harvest Method: Use garden shears to cut fruit from the vine
  • Handling Tip: Leave a portion of the stem attached to improve storage life
  • Post-Harvest: Allow squash to cure in a dry, well-ventilated area before storing

Saving Seeds

Saving seeds from butternut squash is straightforward when fruit is fully mature.

Select healthy squash and allow them to fully ripen on the vine. After harvesting, remove seeds from the interior, rinse thoroughly, and allow them to dry completely before storing.

Because squash can cross-pollinate with other varieties, isolation is recommended to maintain consistent results in future planting.

Great products, terrible marketing

"I like the products and fast shipping. Watching MPS advertise with Charlie Kirk and fear mongering is madness. I will not be order again."

Carlee A. (1/5)

Best seeds anywhere!

"I have purchased seeds from your website years ago and kept planting them for numerous years! Then I made the mistake of ordering from another large seed company - the seeds were very frail and did not produce in many cases! You can see the difference in the seeds and the plants they produce! From now on it’s heirloom seeds from My Patriot Supply!"

Beth N. (5/5)

Too Early….

"It is too early to plant and see how the seeds produce the fruit/vegetable. Of course purchasing is the easiest part. The proof witll be in the harvest."

Waltham Butternut Squash

"I was starting to think my season wouldn't be long enough & Spring had been so rainy that the bees weren't out so I had pollinated all the female flowers that I could find. I didn't think it would work but I got an Amazing Crop of beautiful Squash even though it was a bit late. They store really well too."

Calories You Can Count On

When it comes to calorie counts in emergency food, a lot of other brands skimp to save a buck. Some even deliver as few as 1,200 calories per day. Not here. All My Patriot Supply emergency food kits provide at least 2,000 calories per person, per day – with real meals that actually taste good.

Our products are made to get you through tough times, and the packaging is built to outlast them. We seal our food in ultra-thick, four-layer resealable pouches with oxygen absorbers to lock out air, light, and moisture. And our buckets are made of extra thick polypropylene with structural reinforcements, so you can stack them as high as you need to.
