Nutrient-packed Georgia collards are essential to traditional southern cooking, lending flavorful heft to soups and stews. Dark, tender, leafy greens thrive in a wide range of temperatures and growing conditions. Plant in spring and again in late summer for a fall to winter harvest. Collard greens can withstand temperatures as low as 10 degrees F, but also grow well in hot summer weather. Harvest whole collard plants when they are 6-8” tall. Or, pick the bottom leaves as needed, and the inner buds will keep producing more foliage.
