20 Perennial Vegetables to Plant Once and Enjoy Forever! A Brief History of Perennial Crops According to Perennial Vegetables by Eric Toensmeier, most North American gardening and farming traditions come from Europe, where there are very few perennial crops except fruits and nuts. Cold and temperate Eurasian agriculture centered around livestock, annual grains and legumes, and early European settlers to North America simply brought their seeds and their cultivation methods with them, including draft animals for plowing up the soil every year. more info www.smallfootprintfamily.com/20-perennial-vegetables

Wow! I did not know Kale was a perennial. I did not cultivate my Kale last fall because I got busy doing other stuff. I wonder if it will be healthy this Spring. I also did not know that Scarlet runner beans are perennials. I love those. The flowers are pretty and the beans are unique. Cool. I have some of those that were not pulled up too Thanks for the info.
