Organic Beets with tops.
Our beets are brightly colored, sweet, and filling. Roots: Try grating fresh beets over greens, or incorporating steamed beets into more complex or marinated salads. Beets are also the main ingredient in several types of borscht, the famous Eastern European soup. Finally, beet roots are often used to provide color and sweetness in detoxifying vegetable juices. Tops: beet tops have a very hearty, chard-like flavor and texture, and can be used similarly. It might be best to steam or saute the greens lightly.

Our beets are grown locally, right here in our own fields, November to mid-May. They are sold by the pound, with or without tops.

"Beets are also an excellent source of hearth-healthy folate and a very good source of the antioxidant manganese and heart-healthy potassium. Beets are a good source of digestive-supportive dietary fiber, free radical scavenging vitamin C and copper, bone-healthy magnesium, and energy-producing iron and phosphorus."
