Scarlet turnips are small, vibrant red roots with crisp white flesh and a clean, peppery bite. Their flavor is milder and sweeter than standard purple-top turnips, making them versatile for raw and cooked applications. Slice thin for salads, quick-pickle for a bright garnish, or roast to concentrate their natural sweetness. Their tender greens are also edible and add a mild, earthy note when sautéed or incorporated into soups.

This small farm takes root in the fertile soil of Lancaster County, PA. Using organic growing methods, Eagle Road Farm takes care to control the health of their produce by using only natural, biological means to eliminate pests from their farm. This is accomplished through various methods such as pest habitat manipulation, growing of resistant crops, and cultural/agricultural shifts that make the crops a naturally more inhospitable place for those pesky little critters while making the farmland richer overall.
