Brassica oleracea. 55-70 days. A great open pollinated broccoli bred in Oregon by plant breeder Dr. Alan Kapuler of Peace Seeds. Nutribud is the broccoli to grow for flavor. The sweetest, richest and possibly the most nutritious broccoli for spring and fall. Deep-green florets, central head and prolific side shoots make this an excellent variety…
Cucumis sativus. Slicing. 50-60 days. Middle Eastern/Mediterranean type cucumber – bright green skin, smooth, mild flavor – with amazing sweet flavor, texture, productivity and appearance. Nobody needs to grow the American type of cucumber – dark-green, bumpy, prone to bitterness – when there are delicious gems like this. Thin skin is remarkably tender yet durable….
Allium cepa. Yellow Storage. 110 days. Long Day. Simply the best open pollinated yellow storage onion. Originally selected from a European commercial hybrid storage onion, it was reselected under and for organic production. The tightly wrapped, copper-skinned, spherical bulbs are known for their excellent storage life, crisp texture, and medium hot rich flavor. Newburg has…
Pisum sativum. Green Snow. 60 days. We were tired of short, bushy snow peas, so when we found this beauty from Peace Seeds, we were very excited. Bicolor purple flowers look lovely on vigorous vines that grow up to 8′ tall. The tender, green snow pea pods can grow to 7” and still be delicious….
Pisum sativum. Green Sugar Snap. 80 days. One of our favorites for flavor and productivity. 6-8′ vines yield light-green, sweet pods with a purple stripe down the side when mature. Very sweet, just like a sugar snap should be and the pods just keep coming for weeks and weeks and weeks. We find the flavor…
Pisum sativum. Purple Sugar Snap. 70 days. After more than 15 years of breeding work, Dr. Alan Kapuler developed the first purple-podded sugar snap pea. Beautiful purple pods and flowers. Good sweet flavor, although not quite as sweet as Magnolia Blossom. We find the flavor and texture to be best before the pods get really…
Pisum sativum. Green Sugar Snap. 60 days. A classic green sugar snap pea. Vines are a bit shorter than most of our other peas topping out at 5′ or so. Super tasty with a classic sweet crunch – we like to eat them when extra plump. Scored high for flavor and total marketable weight in…
Zea mays. Sweet. 85 days. A superb addition to the list of cool, purple vegetables. Normal sugary (SU) kernels are sweet and richly flavored, but the real coup of Double Red is the ridiculously dark red color. The kernels are so red that they can turn your fingers purple when eating it. Certainly a culinary…
Capsicum annuum. Green to Red. 80 days. Peace Bell is a big red bell pepper with that classic blocky bell shape and sweet, tasty fruit. We have been looking for a red bell pepper to add to our offerings for a very long time, but found that most open-pollinated varieties were too late maturing, with…
Solanum lycopersicum. 55-60 days. Det. An early red tomato with great yields on short determinate bushes. 3-7 oz fruit have excellent flavor and appearance. Fruit set in clusters with three or four concentrated flushes. We plant Early Willamette as an early rotation because of its manageable size and concentrated yield. A favorite of many home…
Solanum lycopersicum. Red Cherry. 70 days. Semi-det. Selected from crosses between humboldtii wild tomatoes and Solanum habrochaites, this is one unique tomato. Multi-flora type has clusters of dozens of fruit – possibly up to a hundred. Red cherries weigh about ¼ oz with a cute point on the blossom end. Compact growth habit is uniquely…
Citrullus lanatus. 75 days. Delicious, sweet, yellow-fleshed watermelon. 3-8 lb fruit have attractive, light-green skin with dark-green tiger stripes, which makes them easy to tell apart from the red watermelons. An early maturing variety that is cool weather tolerant, always ripens in our short growing season, and is always sweet – may be the sweetest…
