Eat Winter Vegetables
The goal of the Eat Winter Vegetables project is to increase production and consumption of eight winter vegetables in Oregon: Brussels Sprouts, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Celeriac, Garlic, Purple Sprouting broccoli, Radicchio and Winter Squash
Oregon’s mild winter climate is well suited to storage crops and over-wintered field vegetables. However, there are currently few locally-grown winter vegetables available January through April.
