Frequently Asked Questions

 

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SALAD SAVOY® AND FLOWERING KALE? AREN’T THEY THE SAME?
While flowering kale, also known as decorative or oriental kale, somewhat resembles salad savoy, the true difference is in the taste. The Packer’s Produce Availability Guide describes Salad Savoy® as an “open-headed leafy vegetable closely related to kale and cabbage, but should not be confused with flowering kale, which is used mostly as an ornamental…the flavor resembles cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli” while describing  flowering kale, a bedding flower, as “having a bitter taste.” Also, with the bolt-resistancy of Salad Savoy®, there is gourmet quality product year-round.

ARE ANY OF YOUR ITEMS GMO (GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISMS)?
No, all of our interesting colors and flavors are the result of natural breeding methods utilized in the horticultural field for generations. The bees do most of the work.

HOW DO YOU GET THE COLORS IN YOUR VEGETABLES? DO YOU DYE THE HEADS?
While that might be fun to play around with, all the colors of the cauliflower are the result of natural breeding techniques as in the above question – much like strains of Heirloom tomatoes.
