Food As A Lens: Eating Squash From Your Garden This Fall

At this time of the year many gardens are overflowing with zucchini and other types of squash. In Cuba, in addition to their work on large sugar producing plantations, slaves received time and space to work their subsistence gardens. Former slave Esteban Montejo recalled his days in captivity in Cuba, ?it was the small gardens that saved many slaves. They provided them real nourishment. . . . They were real close to the barracoons [slave quarters], almost right in back" and we "grew everything there: sweet potato, squash, okra, corn, peas, horse beans, beans, like limas, limes, yucca, and peanuts.? Here is a crock pot squash recipe that I recently made, it was delicious.
