🌿 Collard Greens
Collard greens are hardy, leafy greens with large, sturdy leaves that grow well during Eleuthera’s cooler season. They are valued for their texture, flavor, and versatility in cooking.
In season: December–March
Collard greens are often used in slow-cooked dishes, sautéed with onions and herbs, added to soups and stews, or lightly steamed as a side. They can also be mixed with other greens or finished with herb-infused olive oil for simple, flavorful meals.

Known for their broad leaves and rich flavor, collards thrive during Eleuthera’s cooler months and are harvested fresh for maximum taste and nourishment. They have long been a staple in traditional cooking and everyday meals.
