Sunchokes, also called Jerusalem Artichokes, are actually a perennial species of sunflower cultivated for their delicious tubers. Originally an American species, they were cultivated by Native Americans long before being introduced in Europe, and their high inulin content made them a traditional remedy for diabetes. The tubers resemble ginger and they have a sweet, nutty flavor with a hint of artichoke. When sliced thin, they make a great addition to salads. More commonly, they are used like potatoes and steamed or roasted or cooked pretty much however you choose! Like other sunflowers, they produce tall plants with cheerful yellow flowers. Vigorous spreaders, sunchokes will readily establish themselves in an area if not checked by methods such as growth barriers or regular annual harvest.

White Fuseau is a highly-productive variety with a sweet flavor, thin skin, and round blond tubers that are easy to clean.

Sunchoke tuber size can be very variable, but on average 1 pound will contain at least 4-8 tubers.

We'll have a limited quantity of sunchokes available for pre-order in January; more will be re-stocked after our tubers are dug in spring (typically April).
