Red Acre Cabbage is a classic heirloom variety prized for its compact heads, vibrant deep red-purple color, and crisp texture. This early cabbage produces dense, round heads with tightly layered leaves that offer a mildly sweet flavor and excellent tenderness.

Perfect for fresh slaws, salads, pickling, and cooking, Red Acre adds beautiful color and rich flavor to a wide range of dishes. Its manageable size and reliable performance make it an excellent choice for home gardens and smaller growing spaces.
