crop feature

Beets

Beets aren’t just your grandmother’s vegetable anymore! With their stunning fuchsia color and high antioxidant content, they are one of the most exciting summer crops on the farm. Beets are loaded with phytonutrients called betalains which have proven to be effective in fighting cancer. They also provide high amounts of fiber, folate, potassium and boron. Most recently beets have shown to increase athletic performance due to their nitrate content which lowers blood pressure and sends oxygen to your muscles. On top of all that, they taste sweet but have a low impact on your blood sugar. Talk about a power house! We like to roast them to bring out their best flavor, and they are also wonderful pickled.

One of the healthiest of all commonly eaten vegetables

9 times more antioxidants than tomatoes

Roast, chill and pair with blue cheese to add to a salad

Use the leaves too; they make wonderful sauté greens!
