Swiss Chard

Vegetables Seasonal Saturn

Swiss chard reaches its peak between June and October, offering its most tender leaves and crisp, colorful stalks during the British summer. While imports bridge the winter gap, the domestic harvest is prized for its freshness. Rich in vitamins K, A, and C, it is both vibrant and nutrient-dense.
