The garden-fresh crunch, delivered straight from the Colony soil to your table.
Look at that vibrant, deep green colour! Pulled straight from our fertile Alberta soil, our freshly harvested Romaine lettuce is the gold standard of crispness.
Why You’ll Love Our Romaine:
- Unbeatable Crispness: Harvested at peak maturity so the ribs are thick, juicy, and packed with natural hydration.
- 100% Naturally Grown: Cultivated on our Hutterite Colony farms with clean water, rich soil, and absolute care—completely free of synthetic shortcuts.
- Vibrant & Nutrient-Dense: Packed with Vitamin A, Vitamin K, folate, and iron to power your summer meals.
- Grown Local, Sold Local: Delivered to you within 24 to 48 hours of harvest. No wilted leaves, no soggy bags—just pure, cold-chain-fresh greens.
Kitchen Inspiration:
- Caesar Salad: Chop crisp Romaine hearts, toss with shaved parmesan, garlic croutons, and a rich Caesar dressing.
- Healthy Wrap Alternative: Use the sturdy, canoe-shaped inner leaves as low-carb wraps for taco beef, chicken salad, or ginger-soy ground pork.
- Lightly Grilled Romaine: Slice a head in half lengthwise, brush with a little HFE olive oil or beef tallow, and grill face-down for 2 minutes. Top with blue cheese dressing and crumbled bacon for an elegant steakhouse side dish!
Care & Storage Tips:
To keep your heads of Romaine incredibly crisp for up to two weeks:
- Keep it Dry: Moisture is the enemy of stored greens. Do not wash the heads until right before you are ready to eat them.
- The Towel Trick: Wrap the heads gently in a dry paper towel or clean tea towel, and place them inside a reusable storage bag. The towel will absorb any excess moisture while keeping the environment humid.
- Chill Out: Keep them in your refrigerator’s dedicated crisper drawer.
