Don't Count Kale Out!

When you mention kale, a lot of people immediately think "health food" or "green smoothies". ;) Besides the traditional ways to enjoy this healthy, leafy treat, kale can be eaten as a chip!  That's right, Kale chips are easy to make, delicious and good for you!  Warning: kale chips are addictive and may require baking of repeated batches.

Seven Springs Farm has plenty of fresh kale for sale!  You may contact us directly or it is also available through Clemson Area Food Exchange (www.cafe.com) and Six Mile Farmer's Depot (Thursdays, Main St. Six Mile, 4-7pm).
