If you are looking for a crop that defines homestead self-sufficiency, look no further than the heirloom rutabaga. These rugged, yellow-fleshed roots—like the classic American Purple Top—are famous for their ability to thrive in cool weather and stay fresh in storage for months. Often overlooked by grocery stores, a homegrown rutabaga offers a sweet, savory depth of flavor that is incredible when mashed with butter, roasted with other root crops, or added to a hearty beef stew. These nutrient-dense roots are the perfect way to ensure your family has fresh, "dirt-grown" nutrition all winter long.
