    Correspondent Gillian Ferguson scouts out zucchini with Chef Kim Vu of the recently opened Cult, just a short walk from the Santa Monica Farmer’s Market. Vu suggests using the squash for a gazpacho on a hot day, baking zucchini muffins and freezing them to grab for a hike or beach outing, and spiralized noodles with a traditional bolognese.
