Wanted to highlight the salad turnips we are currently offering. These aren’t your standard turnips. They are smaller, with sweet tender crisp flesh. Cook as you would any turnip. As a crunchy addition to salad. Or, I like to roast the roots and saute the greens.

Scarlet Queen, a beautiful red salad turnip.
These slightly flattened turnips have sweet, crisp white flesh and spicy red skin. Internal red splashes of color add to the appeal when sliced. The dark green tops with attractive red stems may be used in salads or lightly cooked.

Hakurei, a white salad turnip sets the standard for flavor.
The smooth flat-round, white roots mature early, and are best harvested young up to 2" diameter. Eaten raw, the flavor is sweet and fruity, and the texture is crisp and tender. The tops are useful raw or lightly cooked.
