It's that special time of year in the mountains: before the weeds, before the bugs, when the daffodils inspire old man winter to dress up a little for the occasion. Farmers who grow greens through the winter know this as the time when the warmer days bring spurts of abundant growth, but the cool night protect the flavor. This seems to have a magical effect on the taste and texture of greens, particularly kale, which becomes the sweetest and crunchiest it could ever get.
See if you can tell the difference! The soil and climate of the NC mountains has a special effect on certain crops, and we can guarantee that you won't find better kale than what our farmers grow here.
