Blooming collards! Last winter we left this collards patch to freeze in 0 degree weather. We didn't protect the plants at all. Now those same plants offer a bountiful spring harvest of leaves, stems, and even flowers that can be eaten fresh or cooked. The cold weather has sweetened them. Try this on any plants in the brassica family - cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, kohlrabi, and others. Just skip fall garden cleanup and you'll be rewarded with free nutritious food.
