164"Sweet Lorane" is a classic English variety with 5-6" pods containing 3-5 large sweet beans.
Beet
 Golden Beet (OG)
279Striking golden flesh beet that retains its golden color upon cooking. High in antioxidants.
Beet
 Chioggia Guardsmark (OG)

21We will provide both the classic egg shaped purple beauty and the slender purple asian variety.
Kale
 Red Russian (OG)
41Another beautiful variety with purple stems and flat, toothed dark green leaves with purple veins.
Kale
 Lacinato (Dinosaur)
41This variety is also called "dinosaur" because it's leaves resemble the texture of dinosaur skin. One of our "super foods;" high in phytonutrients and flavenoids (antioxidants) to fight aging and disease. This variety can be harvested into December by harvesting by clipping individual leaves. Unique variety with beautiful dark grren leaves and a softer texture. My personal favorite.
Lettuce (Leaf)

All three varieties have tall strong plants that yield well for snack-type peppers.
