Although usually steamed or stir-fried, kale leaves can also be massaged raw with a little olive oil, salt and lemon juice and made into a salad. Well worth a try if you haven’t already!

Corn Salad / Lamb’s Lettuce – (Organic)
Price range: £1.90 through £3.20 Add to basket This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product pageCorn Salad / Lamb’s Lettuce – (Organic)
An invaluable hardy winter salad for growing outdoors and under cover with a superb nutty flavour. Corn salad or lamb’s lettuce is a small annual plant that forms rosettes of dark green leaves which have a gentle nutty flavour, soft texture, and are extremely popular as salad greens. It provides a valuable source of fresh greens during the autumn and winter months as it is suitable for growing outdoors with little protection or under cover in the cold.
We are amazed by this plant’s hardiness and really enjoy growing it! Ronja grew up eating ‘Feldsalat’ (German for corn salad) almost every day during the winter months and wouldn’t want to live without it.

Parsnip – Tender and True (Organic)
£1.90 Add to basketParsnip – Tender and True (Organic)
A classic French variety with very tasty long white roots. Tender and True is one of the best tasting parsnips you will find. If left in the ground until after the first frosts, the starch will turn into sugars and make this parsnip even sweeter.
The shoots and leaves of parsnip must be handled with care, as its sap contains furanocoumarins, chemicals that can cause burns on the skin when exposed to sunlight.
