About
Parsnips (Pastinaca sativa) are a premium root vegetable prized for their sweet, nutty flavor and frost-enhanced quality, making them a lucrative choice for growers targeting wholesale, retail, and processing markets. As a cool-season crop, parsnips thrive in temperate climates and fit well into winter harvest schedules.
The white root is about 20 cm long and has an aniseed flavour. Parsnips are sown from the second half of April. Parsnips are considered a winter vegetable, but can sometimes be harvested in the summer. Harvesting is possible throughout the winter.
