Grow the best organic kale this season

Now that kale is being revered as a superfood and kale chips are all the rage, it might be time to raise kale in your vegetable garden this year.

A cool-season vegetable and Brassica bursting with nutrition, organic kale is easy to grow and can be harvested in as little as a month after sowing. Start seeds indoors four to six weeks before the last frost, or direct sow seeds immediately after. Choose a planting site that drains well and gets partial to full sun. Space seedlings about a foot apart to allow enough room for mature plants to reach their potential height. Full-grown leaves vary from 12 to 30 inches long, depending on the variety. Be sure to buy a few extra seeds and plan to sow succession plantings every three weeks to ensure consistent harvests of this kitchen staple.

How to harvest organic kale

Leaves may be continuously harvested from the same plant all season, but younger plants tend to produce more decadent leaves. Don’t worry about cold spring nights or frosty fall mornings—organic kale is a forgiving plant and handles colder temperatures with ease. Cold snaps actually make kale leaves taste sweeter—the plant protects itself from freezing by producing more sugars. When little else is growing in your garden, you’re guaranteed at least a kale harvest.
