Root Crops
The average Western palate is unaware of the following lesser-known root crops – you’d be hard-pressed to find these at the local grocer. They truly deserve more attention.
Fortunately, as a veggie gardener, you have access to these “unconventional” and highly nutritious vegetables, and can experiment with new flavours and cuisines!
Please see the individual notes for each variety, or consult a good local gardening book for specific cultivation information not covered in the Info Bar.
