Collards (bunch)

Description

Locally grown using organic practices by Valley Flora Farm (Langlois) and Norm Lehne Garden & Orchards (Roseburg), and coming to you from one or the other, based on the time of year.

Robust collards, part of the cabbage family, are a culinary staple in the South, where they’re traditionally cooked in a long, slow braise. However, with their surprisingly mild taste (there’s just a hint of bitterness), these greens also lend themselves to faster recipes and work with hearty and light flavors alike. They’re chock-full of vitamins B6, C, and E, and are an excellent source of calcium, folate, and beta-carotene.

To store: rinse, pat dry, trim any bad spots, and store in the bottom crisper drawer wrapped in paper towels.
