She said fresh squash and pumpkin are the stars of the greenmarket this week, and perfect for making some Thanksgiving favorites from scratch this year.  "The nice thing about a lot of squash varieties," Tarpey says, "is if you're a vegetarian household -- or if you have vegetarians coming to your Thanksgiving dinner --  squash can make a really good alternative to the main."Tarpey says right now, Greenmarkets across the city are selling varieties of squashes at roughly $2 dollars to $4.50 a pound.
