(Cichorium intybus) We're very excited about this latest introduction from our friends at Smarties.bio. Along radicchio's inevitable march to becoming America's Favorite Vegetable™, few types have captured the attention of the food loving public more than the pink rosettes of Rosa del Veneto. It's the glitterati of the radicchio family.
One of the biggest drawbacks, from a growing perspective however is that they historically have been very late to mature. And its not just a matter of sizing up...they are usually actually almost entirely green until at least late November when they start to develop a pink core of leaves that fills into the characteristic loose head. In places like the Northeast that often see rapid transitions to very cold winter temps by then, it could be very hard to get them to full maturity.
'Jolanda' is a special selection for early coloring and we were hugely impressed with the results in an observation trial at the home farm this year. We had beautifully colored hearts by the second week of October, and while the heads continued to fill in for the next two months after that, loose heads with the fantastic salmon pink color could be harvested for salad much earlier than other varieties of the type. It did not appear to us as though there was much of a downside later in the season either, as the heads never became "overmature" if left to grow longer. In fact, we found the quality of heading to be among the best and most uniform we have yet seen for the pinks. Andrea and the Smarties crew are onto something with this selection. Highly recommended.

About the named varieties... For most vegetables, in order to provide a continuous harvest over a long period of time, growers stagger planting dates throughout the season which in turn provides a continuous harvest as the plants mature to eating stage. With radicchio, a different strategy is employed. For the most part, the majority of heading radicchio is best suited to seeding around the summer solstice (transplanting in the second-third week of July). To achieve a longer harvest period, rather than staggering planting dates, breeders have developed different varieties within a type with different days-to-maturity harvests. These are often referred to as "slots" with many types having early, mid, and late slotted varieties.

Great mineral sunscreen that actually works
Set name: Tube - 5 oz.
Blue Lizard Sensitive Mineral SPF 50 has become my daily go-to. It goes on smooth, doesn’t leave a weird white cast like some mineral sunscreens, and gives solid protection. I like that it’s 100% mineral with no harsh chemicals and has organic aloe vera in it, so my skin feels hydrated instead of dried out. No greasy feeling, no strong scent, and it holds up well even when I sweat a bit. Been using it for a few weeks now and it performs exactly how I want. Small bottle but a little goes a long way. Definitely recommend if you want a simple, effective mineral option.

Gentle, hydrating with a slight white cast
Set name: Tube - 5 oz.
Really solid mineral sunscreen. Goes on smooth, not too thick, and feels lightweight but still hydrating. It does leave a slight white cast, which I actually like since it feels like better protection. The formula feels gentle and doesn’t irritate my skin. Great for daily use, and the UV color-changing cap is a nice bonus. Would repurchase.

Great sunblock.
Set name: Stick - 0.5 oz.
Love this stuff. It’s the only sunscreen that doesn’t sting my eyes. It works really well. It goes a long way. Lil dab will do ya. Maybe I use too much each application. I live in Florida and put it on my arms and face everyday. It does leave white smudges, smears and handprints on things.

Fabulous product! Made my skin feel soft!
Set name: Tube - 5 oz.
This product goes on smooth and a little goes a long way. I used it today for the first time and was very pleased that it held up to my sweating in the heat doing farm work! It doesn’t bother my very sensitive skin, in fact it is quite soothing. A little goes a long way. With about a quarter size amount I was able to do both arms and my face. I was outside for several hours and didn’t burn like I usually do. It is basically unscented which is nice and isn’t sticky.
