Local Produce Even in winter, Texas soil keeps giving. While the air turns crisp and the days grow shorter, local farms continue their quiet work—harvesting hearty greens, bright citrus, and cool-weather roots that thrive under the gentle winter sun. These winter crops are a testament to resilience and care, grown by farmers who know the land in every season and tend it with patience and pride. Bringing Texas winter produce to the table means savoring comfort, warmth, and freshness when it’s needed most—supporting local families and honoring the enduring connection between the land, the farmer, and home.

Root Vegetables Winter root vegetables like carrots, beets, parsnips and Kohlrabi are the backbone of winter menus. Naturally sweet earthy and deeply flavorful, they thrive in roasting, purees and hearty winter soups. Luxurious winter radishes are best in cold weather as warm weather can make them too spicy.

Winter Produce Highlights Rewrite the Recipe Long before a cookbook is cracked—even before farmers sow their fields—most plant breeders write recipes for our ingredients. The problem? Too often, they are asked to select for commodity traits. What if you could help rewrite the recipe? Row 7 works alongside plant breeders, chefs, farmers, gardeners, and eaters to do just that, selecting deliciousnew vegetables for your kitchen. Today, the experiment continues beyond the seed. Row 7 partners with regional organic growers to bring unique vegetables to restaurant menus. The end goal? Tastier food, healthier soil, more diverse and nutritious diets for as many people as possible. In other words, a revolution we can all get behind.

Row 7 - Koginut Squash​(Pictured Above) This little squash is a cross between two squash types - one prized for its high dry matter, the other for its concentrated sweetness. Row 7’s Koginut inherited the best of both, with a velvety texture and intensely squash-y flavor. Even better, Koginut has a built-in ripeness indicator as the squash on the vine turn from green to bronze when ripe, ensuring that each one is picked at peak flavor. Row 7 - Upstate Abundance Potato​ Originally deemed a failed experiment, Row 7’s Upstate Abundance Potatoes are small, golf ball-sized potatoes with bright white flesh. At the time, they didn’t fit the conventional standard but quickly gained a cult following among chefs due to its uncommon size and exceptionally creamy texture and nutty flavor.

Seasonal Produce Winter brings the quiet abundance of the soil to the forefront. This is the season for earthy root vegetables—carrots, beets, turnips, and sweet potatoes— pulled from the ground at their peak, rich with flavor and warmth. Tender winter greens like kale, collards, chard, and mustard thrive in the cool air, growing sweeter with each cold snap. Alongside them, California citrus emerges as a true treasure, growing sweeter with cool nights and sunny days and cultivated with patience and care. Together, these winter harvests tell a story of resilience and nourishment—food grown slowly, thoughtfully, when ingredients are naturally at their best.

Greens & Chicories Cold weather menus naturally lean into rich, comforting dishes. Chicories (radicchio, frisée, escarole) and winter greens (kale, chard, collards and mustard) cut through the fat with bitterness, minerality and bite, keeping dishes balanced instead of heavy. Seasonal and visually striking, our chicories and local greens deliver color and contrast at the peak of their short winter season.
