Achochas: Cultural Considerations | Planting Guidelines | Where to Buy | More
New open source DIY rare food growing resource: "Achocha, also called caigua or the Bolivian Cucumber, is a vining species of cucurbit native to frost-free inter-Andean valleys from Colombia to Bolivia. The pointed fruits are eaten raw or cooked, and their hollow center is often stuffed with a mixture of grains, meat and cheese. The fruits have been shown to lower blood pressure and reduce cholesterol when eaten on a regular basis."
