One of the most cool hardy vegetables that can be successfully grown almost anywhere soil is fertile. Versatility is endless in the cabbage “field”. You can choose from either Red or Green types which are most commonly harvested varieties for consuming fresh or for cold storage. Ruffled Savoy Cabbages are ideal for fresh eating also and are especially easy and delicious for making ever popular cabbage rolls. Pointed head type cabbages are another option and with their compact size are perfect for any home garden where space may be limited. Cabbage can be picked fresh from late May until December in some areas.
