John Bostock began growing buttercup squash (Kabocha) for export in 1985.
Since then, BOSTOCK New Zealand has increased from growing a few hectares of one squash variety to over 800 hectares of four different varieties.
Buttercup squash was developed in Japan. It is very sweet with a nutty flavour and vibrant colour.
We have a state of the art packhouse and are leading innovation in the New Zealand Industry, incorporating a computer program that provides complete traceability of our buttercup squash from planting through to our customers
