MACHADO FARMS

As potato breeders, we sample tubers from all over the world- Mexico, Canada, South America, Peru, South Korea and so on. They come in all colors- red, blue, white, yellow, tan, brown, with all different colors. These potatoes are delicious and unusual. They won't make our high standards for breeding, but they make for a fine meal.  Price is per pound. Shipping extra.

These long, sweet red onions, sometimes called Giant Shallots, are a throwback to the Italian past, where in the city of Tropea they throw a festival in honor of this delicious onion. They were once seen in farmer's markets everywhere, but slowly and surely farmers have abandoned this onion in favor of the rock hard storage types. A shame, really. This tangy, zesty sweet onion is a real head turner and show stopper. When you really want to make an impression, give these a try.

Seasonal- from about July until about February. Shipping extra.

A stunning and diverse mix of multi-colored carrots. We crossed several lines to get these colors and this sweet taste- seedstock from Africa, India, France, Asia and America. The colors range from red, white, yellow, purple, tan, orange, with all shades in between, often two or more colors on the same carrot. Wildly unique. Carrots are washed once. Price is per pound. Shipping extra.

Long time customer Rita Harrah kept a close eye on my very first attempts to grow salad mix many years ago. She was especially concerned about balancing the greens, with not too much oxalic acid, and more protein. Over time, I would set aside a certain mix for her labeled simply "Rita's Mix". When her mix proved to be the most popular, I put it front and center, and sold out every week.

We have kales, mustards, spinach, asian greens, chicories, small broccoli leaves, and a seasonal selection of amaranth, quinoa, and many others. Complimentary flavors and textures, not much lettuce. Will keep for up to 2 weeks properly stored. Washed well. Price is per lb. Shipping extra.
