Brussels Sprouts

Vegetables Seasonal Moon

Brussels sprouts reach their peak between October and February, thriving in the UK’s cold winter climate. While available earlier, they are best after a frost, which enhances their natural sweetness. High in vitamin C, K, and folate, these miniature cabbages are a nutrient-dense, seasonal staple of the British winter harvest.
