Parsnips resemble carrots and can be used in similar ways, but they have a sweeter taste, especially when cooked. They can be baked, boiled, pureed, roasted, fried, grilled, or steamed. When used in stews, soups, and casseroles, they give a rich flavor.
Parsnips can also be fried or thinly sliced and made into crisps.

The parsnip is usually cooked, but it can also be eaten raw. It has a very sweet taste, like carrots. It is high in vitamins and minerals, especially potassium. It also contains antioxidants and both soluble and insoluble dietary fiber.

Wayward Seed Farm is based in Ohio and acts as a regional food cooperative.
Wayward is allied with Second Spring Farm in MI and Clarion River Organics in PA; forming a regional organic cooperative.
As the group expands, farms will be focusing on growing crops that are best suited to their production model; this specialization optimizes resources, and increases operational efficiencies; reducing production costs while enabling the group to still offer a broad selection of products.

If you ever have a question on exactly which farm provided your delicious treat please reach out and we would be happy to provide any and all information!

We strive to continue this partnership; guided by transparency to the customers.
