Sycamore Spring Farm

Ocimum. Annual. One of the most popular culinary herbs grown today. Its name is said to arise from the Greek word for king-"basileias". It seems to have almost a mystical relationship with tomatoes! Reputed to repell mosquitoes. Easy to grow annual that does best in rich soil. Better than organic seed.

Daucus Carota sativa. 75 days. Two inch diameter roots are often 9 inches long. Very fragrant, sweet and crunchy. Bright orange. This is my favorite carrot. In 1927, a major US seed house advertised Danvers at an ounce of seed for a dime! Originated among market gardeners near Danvers, Massachusetts in 1871. Our own farm grown, untreated, better-than-organic seeds.

Collards, a southern staple and one of the most nutritious of all greens have a huge following here at the farm.  They are high in vitamins and minerals and provide for great versatility in the kitchen. Collards are a non-heading member of the cabbage/mustard family with huge cabbage-like blue-green leaves. The young fresh leaves can be picked for salads. More mature leaves can be picked from the plant for a longer harvest or the entire plant can be cut off at ground level. Excess harvest can also be blanched and frozen to provide greens for later use. Collards are more heat tolerant than other greens and are cold tolerant up to about 20 degrees F, so they make a good spring/summer and fall crop. A light frost makes the leaves taste even more deslisious
