{"product_id":"cabbage-dowinda","title":"Cabbage, 'Dowinda'","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e(Brassica oleracea)\u003c\/em\u003e We tend to listen to what Marko and Hanako of Midori Farm in Quilcene, WA (producers of our favorite sauerkrauts) have to say about cabbage, so when Marko told me ‘Dowinda’ was one of his favorite storage varieties several years back, that was about as good an endorsement as any trial result. Vigorous and uniform, it produces medium to large, oblong (but not pointed), dense, green heads that are very cold-hardy and store well into the winter. The eating quality makes it a storage standout, very sweet and crisp. Dowinda is as good an OP cabbage as we've seen, and we'd put it up against virtually any of the storage hybrids on the market. The density of the heads is impressive, with the layers of leaves sometimes barely perceptible as the interior appears a solid mass. \u003cbr\u003eHighly recommended. Bred by Dieter Bauer at the biodynamic farm and community Dottenfelder Hof near Frankfurt.\u003cbr\u003e100 days.
