Romanesco
With beautiful, apple-green whorled heads, this Italian broccoli variety has been a culinary delight since the 16th century. Many people think it is like a cross between broccoli and cauliflower. Most often enjoyed raw, the broccoli, if lightly cooked, will retain its flavor and unique texture. Here's a recipe for Romanesco Broccoli and Rigatoni that showcases this beautiful vegetable.
Yukina Savoy
Mildly flavored oriental mustard green, often used as
a substitute for tatsoi. Delicious steamed, stir fried.
Red Komatsuna
Komatsuna is a typical Japanese leafy vegetable. It is often called Japanese Mustard Spinach in the US supermarkets. Young leaves, stalks and flower shoots are used in salad and stir-fry.

There's Dirt on my Sweet Potatoes
Of all the things I've been looking forward to harvesting this fall, sweet potatoes take the cake. I've never had much success growing these aggressive, slightly pernicious tubers, and my early failures didn't encourage me to try very hard. This past winter I attended a workshop at the organic farming conference in my hometown of Lacrosse, and learned a good deal about how to successfully cultivate this southern delicacy in our decidedly northern locale. With some early results in, we have met the expected yield goal of a little over 1# per foot!
