Care and Harvest

Aphids are a common pest, but you can use our prevention and treatment tricks to keep pests at bay!

Harvest baby leaves at 2–3 inches tall for tender salads. Once mature, trim individual leaves at the base as needed.
Taste and Use

Kale can be used fresh or cooked. To use fresh, it is best to massage it to break down fibers and make it easier to eat. It can be tossed in olive oil with salt and baked on a sheet to make kale chips. Steaming it makes for great side dishes or additions to healthy bowls. Kale is also a great ingredient to boost the nutrition of your smoothies!
Origin

Kale has been a staple crop throughout history in many regions of the world, especially the north, as it is resilient to colder temperatures, grows relatively fast, and is nutrient dense.
