Store squash unwashed. Wait to rinse until you’re ready to enjoy ‘em. The extra moisture before storing can lead to mold and spoilage. 


 If you start using a squash, but don’t quite need it all, tightly wrap the cut edge in your favorite sustainable alternative to plastic wrap and place back in your breathable bag in the fridge. 


Can’t use all that Squash? Wash it, slice it and blanch for 3 minutes before packing into freezer bags.
