Productinformation
Parsnip – Guernsey
Can be sown from the beginning of April to the end of May on the final spot in garden in rows; thin out if needed. This classic vegetable is eaten boiled and is often used to flavor a broth. Before we started gardening we did not even knew this vegetable existed. The parsnip is originally from the Mediterranean. The plant was already known to the Ancient Greeks and the Romans. On their way north, the Roman soldiers took parsnips with them and found out it grew much larger in colder areas. Parsnips came to Western Europe in the Middle Ages and were an important food before the introduction of the potato.
