Perennial vegetables are a fantastic way to ensure a steady supply of fresh, nutritious food with minimal effort after the initial planting. These plants return year after year, offering sustainable abundance. Here are 10 perennial veggies to consider for your garden:
- Asparagus
A classic perennial vegetable that can produce for 20+ years. Plant it in a sunny spot with well-drained soil, and enjoy the tender spears each spring.
- Rhubarb
Known for its tart stalks, rhubarb is ideal for pies and desserts. Requires little maintenance once established, thriving in cooler climates.
- Jerusalem Artichokes (Sunchokes)
These sunflower relatives produce nutty-flavored tubers. They’re hardy and will multiply each year, providing a reliable harvest.
- Sorrel
A leafy green with a tangy, lemon-like flavor. Excellent in soups, salads, or as a cooked green.
- Walking Onions (Egyptian Onions)
These unique onions grow “bulbils” at the top of their stalks, which fall and replant themselves. Great for greens and small onion bulbs.
