Garden Oddities Crook Neck Squash and Mini-Me 2014-07-04 - Gradyville, KY - Photo CM Staff photo. Garden Oddities - the biggest, earliest, the best, the notable superlatives, and best of all, curiosities - This Crook Neck Squash, grown in Adair County, KY, was among those at a friends house in Gradyville, KY - a normal squash with a mini-me. Kosher, Halal, Deuteronomy, Hezekiah, or whatever, we know of no religious proscription against eating it. And did. It had the great nutty, farm fresh flavor of all the crook neck yellow squash now so plentiful at the farmers markets. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
