Spring at the Farm is all about the greens. Arugula, kale, lettuce, and our personal favourite - bok choi.
This crunchy little green is so juicy and refreshing that we think of it as the watermelon of the spring! Milo loves crunching into a whole head of bok choi when out in the fields - believe it or not, it’s his snack of choice.
As a dark, leafy, cruciferous vegetable, bok choi is also packed with essential vitamins and nutrients, like folate, calcium and B vitamins.
