We've tried several new varieties of lettuce this spring including several heirloom varieties. One of the most successful has been a Red Romaine. We got the seeds from a small company in the Pacific Northwest. I've been cutting some of the leaves when they are very small and adding them to our lettuce mix. Now that the larger heads are maturing, we are cutting them whole and selling them at the Richmond Farmers' Market. On June 26th, we will be having the second annual Greens Day at the market where we will sample several different varieties of lettuce, including Red Romaine!
