If you love this fruit, you’ll have to pick up some Harvest Barn Country Markets Local Niagara Rhubarb!

Aside from the fact that we are able to get the freshest, tastiest rhubarb from our Niagara-on-the-Lake Harvest Barn Country Market, the rhubarb we got there was at its optimum point of ripeness. These bunches were perfect for cooking as in stewed rhubarb, rhubarb pie, rhubarb tarts, rhubarb fritters and we kind of enjoy it raw as well, just dunked in a bit of sugar.

Find out about this product on this webisode of What I Say About Food:

Crunchy & extra tart when eaten raw, it is also delicious cooking down into a dessert or savory sauce, with some added sweetness of sugar, honey or agave nectar.

Rhubarb is full of magnesium, as well as potassium, which is good to help those of us who tend to get leg cramps. It assists in lowering cholesterol and, as you can see from the red coloring, it is chock full of vitamins and minerals. Overall, it’s a healthy food to include in your regular diet.

With all these benefits, it is positively delicious and it would benefit everyone to eat more rhubarb, especially if you are fortunate enough to have access to Harvest Barn Country Markets, who will provide you with the highest quality produce.
