Purple Sprouting Broccoli
Purple Sprouting Broccoli: vibrant, tender, and full of flavour. This cold-loving veg is a true garden gem, producing slender, violet-hued spears packed with rich, nutty taste. Harvested in the hungry gap of late winter to early spring, it brings a burst of colour and nourishment when little else is thriving. Perfect steamed, sautéed, or tossed into stir-fries, it’s as beautiful as it is delicious.
Grown from seed lovingly by a local allotmenteer right here in Bristol, they’re as rooted in the community as they are in the soil.
