Late heirloom leeks, fat and hearty. Something I aspire to. The blue-green leaves turn blue-purple after some cold weather. Good for storage, mild flavor.
Will beat the pants off any old kale you find at the grocery store. Bunches may be either green stemmed Vates or red stemmed Red Russian. We’ll pick whichever looks best. Both are open-pollinated heirloom varieties.
A delicious snack on their own, chopped into salads or cook them ever so lightly. With a mild sweet pea flavor, they’re a real delicacy. Get them while you can!
