Description
Golden Beet Heirloom
Introduced in the 1820s, golden beets are tender and especially mild and sweet. They are yellow throughout and do not "bleed" like red beets when sliced. Enjoy raw, cooked, or pickled.
Planting
Start outdoors in loose, well-drained soil in early spring as soon as soil can be worked, or up to six weeks before first fall frost. Beets prefer a cool climate and can tolerate mild frost.
Harvest
Keep soil moist for best growth, easy harvest, and sweetest flavor.
