This week's Huckleberry Organic Fruit & Veg Box (week of 7 August 2023), we are discovering the hearty and nutritious Organic Swede from Wellington, our Pick of the Week. This unassuming root vegetable holds an interesting fact: it is known by many names, including "rutabaga" in the United States and "neep" in Scotland.
Packed with vitamins C, E, and K, as well as essential minerals like potassium and manganese, this winter veggie supports a strong immune system and promotes healthy skin and bones. Its rich fibre content aids digestion and helps maintain a healthy gut. Low in calories and high in antioxidants, swede is a great addition to any diet, particularly for those seeking weight management and overall wellness.
Every Friday, we will share what's in store for your next delivery. Here is the list of the box contents for 7 & 9 August deliveries:
