Hi Ellendra, are you by any chance still offering these?  Seems like a very difficult variety to find!

Joseph Lofthouse used to have his own long necked butternut squash for sale as well.

Hi,
I just found out about this butternut squash.
Do you still have any seeds left for sale?
I am very interested in trying this squash.

Thank you,

PS
I'm new here so if I've made a boo-boo, please be gentle

Searching for 'Bigger Better Butternut' squash doesn't seem to bring any current suppliers up, but it does show that this variety was Carol's dehybridization of the 'Ultra HP F1" hybrid, which is still available.  While a traditional seed saver might not want that one, anyone interested in making a giant butternut landrace would see its hybrid status as a bonus.  I went ahead and ordered that one to play with along with several other big ones.
 
I agree. Here's the link: http://stoves2.com
