	Acorn squash - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Acorn squash (Cucurbita pepo) is a winter squash with distinctive longitudinal ridges and sweet, yellow-orange flesh.
		Acorn squash can be found in stores throughout the year, but because they are harvested around late summer and early fall, they are more likely to be available from autumn through winter.
		The acorn squash is not as rich in beta-carotene as other winter squashes, but is a good source of dietary fiber and potassium, as well as smaller amounts of vitamins C and B, mangnesium, and manganese.

	Squash (fruit) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Summer squashes, including young vegetable marrows (such as zucchini [also known as courgette], pattypan and yellow crookneck) are harvested during the summer, while the skin is still tender and the fruit relatively small.
		Winter squashes (such as butternut, Hubbard, buttercup, acorn, spaghetti squash/vegetable spaghetti and pumpkin) are harvested at the end of summer, generally cured to further harden the skin, and stored in a cool place for eating later.
		Squash is native to North America and was one of the "Three Sisters" planted by Native Americans.
