We Grow Chives
Sold by the bunch.
Chives are a hardy perennial which means they come back year after year on their own. In general, all onions can withstand cold temperatures but chives are the winner in the race each spring. Our native pollinators and bees love the tasty purple blossoms. This fragrant slender herb has a milder flavor than onions and garlic.
In spring, it is a treat to use fresh chives in place of green onions in recipes. Add them to your green salads, eggs, cottage cheese, mashed potatoes, and so much more.
One tablespoon of chopped chives has 1 calorie and vitamins A and C, vitamin K, folate and manganese. Chives also contain quercetin, a heart protecting antioxidant.
