This well-loved classic is crisp, sweet, and delicious with a high sugar content. A perfect carrot for juicing, snacking, freezing, and storing. The root matures quickly but is also good when harvested as a baby. Its 6"-7" long root is almost cylindrical and blunt-ended. The fine-grained, red-orange flesh is nearly coreless.

Snap pea. Sweet and crunchy edible pods and peas grow on tall vines. Pods are 2"-3" long and bear over a long picking period. Yields well in both hot and cold weather.

Very early purple broccoli that is planted in fall and harvested in spring.

Very large radish developed in Germany. Attractive scarlet-red skin, crisp white, slightly pungent flesh. These radishes grow from marble to baseball size, without getting woody or spongy.
