  • Do I need to skin the butternut squash, I know this is probably a stupid question but I need to know, I make these fruit & vegetable juices for my dad because he is not well, and I know juice won’t cure him but it’s good for him Thanks xx

    • Yes, I would take off the skin so it doesn’t over work your juicer. I’m sure the juices are helping him feel better :)
      HUGS,

  • Wow, I’ll definitely try your brilliant recipe. I’m a butternut grower who’s been looking for creative ideas of processing butternuts. If all goes well, I’ll try going commercial about it. I’m sure South African, can do with such a healthy juice. Please keep in touch so we can explore the possibility of putting into supermarkets.
