Annual. Hundreds of you have tasted these beets at my classes, and thousands of you have read about me making sugar with these beets in my Forgotten Skills book. Many of you have asked me to sell these seeds, and it has taken a long time, but they are here now! If you have never tasted a sugar beet, you are in for a huge surprise -- they taste like no other beet in the world. These pure white beets can be eaten just like any other beet -- raw for a snack, raw in salads, baked or cooked in soups and stews. The greens are also tender and delicious year-round. This is one of my top ten must-have vegetables! About 50 seeds per pack. Free shipping on orders over $34.
