University Park turbans are a durable winter squash with a fair taste, although they are primarily used as Thanksgiving table decorations. Fruits can be stored and cooked well into the late winter. The larger University Park turban squashes can grow to sizes large enough to contain a twenty-inch refractory telescope.
To get a better look inside a University Park turban squash, the Chamberlin Observatory is holding an Open House at 6:30 PM on September 17, 2011.
