Organic Broccoli

With its crunchy texture and rich earthy flavour, broccoli is tasty both raw and cooked. It is extremely high in Vitamins C, K, and A, as well as folate and dietary fiber, making it an essential vegetable for a balanced diet. Our produce team here at Spud.ca guarantees that our organic broccoli will arrive at your doorstep as fresh as it would be coming straight from the farm. Try preparing our organic broccoli by steaming it. The nutritional value is maintained, and it gives it a softer, more unique texture. Our organic broccoli is available to most regions on Vancouver Island. For more information about organic grocery delivery times and routes, have a look at our delivery page.
