Broccoli-De Cicco
|
|

De Cicco Broccoli is a treasured Italian heirloom introduced to the US in the late 1800’s and for good reason. It is an abundant and early producer of delightfully flavored good sized, blue-green heads, from both the main stalk and side shoots. Delicious raw or cooked, it also freezes well. The flowers make tasty edible treats on their own or tossed in salads or stir-frys, and the seeds are great for sprouting too!

Cauliflower - Early Snowball
|
|

This tasty heirloom dates from 1888. Solid packed, white, a very early producer with good head quality. In our opinion, it’s the best open-pollinated cauliflower variety for our climate! Tolerates light frosts at the beginning and end of season. Doesn't do well in prolonged hot weather.
