Selection towards green leaves, purple stems. Leaves are more tender with a milder flavor than European B. oleracea kales so young leaves are better for salads. Excellent steamed or sautéed in soups, stews and pastas, diced fresh in salad. Probably the easiest kale to grow in the Pacific Northwest. Napus kales are very winter hardy to at least 10˚F. Has better resistance to root rot in waterlogged soils than European kale. Also known as Ragged Jack, Canadian Broccoli, Russian Kale and Fearing Kale. For B. oleracea see Kale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is much genetic evidence that the three crops of Brassica napus, rutabaga, Siberian kale and canola, originated from a natural cross between turnip (B. rapa) and one of the B. oleracea species. B. napus probably developed in Northern Europe, they first appear in written record in the Middle Ages as an oil seed crop. Red Russian and Siberian are the two most well known varieties in the U.S.. However many others have been developed from these lines. The Red Russian variety of siberian kales may have a different story. Tim Peters of Peters Seed and Reseach did an experiment to retrace the evolution of B. napus. He first crossed a chinese cabage (B. rapa) with a European kale (B. oleracea). He did these crosses with a bud pollination technique, which he says \"lets the two species have more time to get to now each other\". After the first cross the result was a beautiful Siberian kale (B. napus). then he crossed in black mustard (B. nigra). This resulted in the Red Russian type (B. napus?) with its distinct color and leaf shapes. So some of the B. napus species are two way mix-ups and some are three way mix-ups.

It has been part of the surviving kale tribe since the deepest freezes of the mid 90s. When we grew it at Gathering Together Farm last winter, the vigor, health, and performance in a commercial setting was impressive to everyone, including Rodrigo, who harvested a treasure of “kale raab” from it during the hungry gap, before spring has arrived and markets are spare. He commented on the caliper of the tender stems, their weight, and sweetness. Leaves grey-green with purple-red veins and stems. Sow mid-July through late August. First leaves are flat, becoming more rumpled, edged with ruffled margins, and extra heavy by time bunching begins. In climates with winters above 5-10°F, most plants will live to produce red napini (aka “kale raab”) from late March through April—a welcome finale to production here. Super quality seed!

The seed business was an adjunct to our Wild Garden Salad business until September of 2001, when we left salad selling behind and rededicated all of our energies to making a livelihood as seed growers, breeders, and sellers. There were some very tough years there. In 2002 we began a joint venture with our friends John Eveland and Sally Brewer, owners of Gathering Together Farm, to grow and sell organic seed under the Wild Garden name. Gathering Together Farm provided the infrastructure, means of production, and home office services, Shoulder to Shoulder Farm provided the seed management, processing, research, and marketing. We shared many complimentary farm functions over the years: the insectary benefits of diverse flowers in a long period of blooming, the harvest synergies of biennial crop production together, peaks and ebbs in farming cash flow, and seasonally opportune infrastructure sharing. All of these made the farm function better and helped lift Wild Garden Seed into a self-sustaining, farm-based seed enterprise with an international reach. We sold seed to 41 countries in 2014, our 20th anniversary.","brand":"RESTORATION SEEDS","offers":[{"title":"200 Seeds","offer_id":3954844805,"sku":"13944","price":4.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2000 Seeds","offer_id":3954844869,"sku":"13945","price":12.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 Ounce","offer_id":3954844933,"sku":"13946","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1\/4 lb","offer_id":31395919691818,"sku":"","price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0129\/8922\/products\/Red-Ruffled-siberian-kale-_IMG_0974_0438fd12-bf73-48b7-a78e-0ae572282a60.jpg?v=1487923971"},{"product_id":"winter-red-siberian-kale","title":"Winter Red","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/restorationseeds.mom\/pages\/table-menu1\"\u003eBrassica napus pabularia\u003c\/a\u003e##\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"how-to-grow-trigger how-to-grow-title\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"label\"\u003eHOW TO GROW SIBERIAN KALE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"icon-down-arrow\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"how-to-grow-content\"\u003eStart indoors 4-6 weeks before last frost, plant out 4 weeks before frost.

I moved to Oregon in 2015 and have been growing my organic seed farming business over the last four seasons by renting land from existing farms and slowly taking on higher volumes and more varieties.
