Kale



Most years kale is the winter standby, the faithful green that keeps on giving long after the others are gone. But this year has been far from typical. We stopped seeing abundant kale around the end of December, although Anselmos's has managed to consistently keep it on their table, and Stoney Plains has had some small bunches.

But the past few weeks more farmers have been bringing it to the market, and it feels like a whiff of spring rather than a pillar of winter.
