Koginut Squash

Koginut squash from Row 7 Seeds is a chef-beloved hybrid between kabocha and butternut, prized specifically for its exceptional flavor and silky texture. When roasted, its dense, velvety flesh develops rich notes of chestnut, sweet potato, and brown butter.

The squash’s balanced sweetness and savory depth make it ideal for purees, soups, risottos, or roasted vegetable dishes. Its consistent size and bronze skin also make it a beautiful and reliable option for both kitchen prep and plate presentation.

Grown by Durst Organics in Esparto, CA. Sold by the 35# case only.

Amagaki Persimmons

Twin Peaks’ Amagakis are golden fleshed with brown flecks. They have a buttery texture and a cinnamon sweetness. While they are typically more astringent than Fuyus, Twin Peaks has perfected a curing process that removes the astringency. It leaves the Amagaki crisp yet creamy with an unmatched sweet flavor. Because of this curing process, Amagakis can not be baked. They are best used in raw applications.

Sold by the 10# flat only.
