Rutabaga – Joan

3504-CO  Brassica napus

(Rutabaga/Winter Turnip) 90-100 days from seed.

Back in 2013, 700 attendees of the Organicology Conference in the US participated in a roasted root- crop taste test. Guess who won for best flavour? That’s right, Joan beat out the beets, the carrots, the parsnips, the turnips, and the other rutabagas. Prized for her creamy texture and uniformity, Joan rounds out at about 5″ with a purple top. Stores well for all your winter soups and root medleys . . . or try preparing it like creamy mashed potatoes, mmm!

Good resistance to club root.
