The skin of the butternut squash and any other squash is edible and healthy for you but the only good way to eat the skin of squash is to roast it which makes it easier to chew and digest.

Eating the skin of butternut squash or any squash raw is okay if you're able to chew it but it's hard to chew unless you cook or roast it first.
