Bright Detroit Red beets 2-3" in diameter. Harvested with greens, which can also be used raw or like chard.
Red beets, known for their vibrant color and earthy sweetness, are a nutrient-dense root vegetable. Originating from the Mediterranean region, beets have been cultivated for thousands of years for their health benefits and culinary versatility. They are rich in vitamins A and C, fiber, folate, and essential minerals like iron and potassium. Beets can be enjoyed raw in salads, roasted to bring out their natural sugars, or blended into soups and smoothies. Their deep crimson hue not only adds visual appeal to dishes but also signifies their high levels of antioxidants, particularly betalains, which have anti-inflammatory properties.
