Hepworth Farms Local Organic Celery
Sold out
A staple in any cook's crisper drawer, celery is a versatile ingredient with a deep, clean taste. It puts the crunch in chicken salad and it's the crispiest dip accompaniment—a sturdy vehicle for peanut butter. When sautéed, celery provides a gentle, herby backbone for soups and stews.
