Turnip Harvest

Turnips are a very under rated root and green. I have always loved eating turnips and turnip greens. Something about them just feels like home. These are a great food to grow, and very easy. Now we didn't get the greens out of these turnips due to neglect and the bugs, but we got over 20 pounds of long lasting, tasty roots. The health benefits of this plant are numerous. From an online nutritional website "Turnips are a cruciferous vegetable with multiple health benefits. They boast an impressive nutritional profile, and their bioactive compounds, such as glucosinolates, may support blood sugar control, protect against harmful bacteria, and provide anticancer and anti-inflammatory effects." For something so easy to grow and that last for months in a cellar, you cannot go wrong with this plant.
