Bring a time-tested classic back to your home garden with Jersey Wakefield Cabbage Seeds from Survival Garden Seeds. This historic heirloom—first introduced in the 1840s—remains a gardener favorite for its distinctive pointed heads, sweet flavor, and dependable early harvests. Compact yet productive, it’s ideal for small gardens, raised beds, and anyone seeking a traditional, reliable cabbage variety.
Distinctive, Early-Maturing Heirloom:
Jersey Wakefield forms cone-shaped, tight green heads weighing 3–5 lbs with a small core and tender, crisp leaves. Its naturally protective wrapper leaves shield the crop, making it a durable performer even in variable weather. With a maturity of about 70 days from transplant, it’s one of the earliest cabbages to harvest—perfect for gardeners who value quick, steady results.
Why Gardeners Love Jersey Wakefield:
- Unique pointed heads – Compact and space-efficient, great for raised beds.
- Sweet, mild flavor – Delicious raw in slaws or cooked in soups, stir-fries, and cabbage rolls.
- Early harvest – Ready in about 70 days, producing tender leaves before most varieties.
- Cold-hardy and adaptable – Performs well in cool northern climates and can overwinter where winters are mild.
How to Grow:
Start seeds indoors 6–8 weeks before your last frost date, then transplant seedlings to full sun in rich, well-drained soil. Space plants 18–24 inches apart in rows 24–36 inches wide, keeping soil evenly moist and mulched to retain water. Jersey Wakefield thrives in cool conditions and is well-suited for both spring and fall plantings.
Culinary Versatility:
This variety’s sweet, tender leaves are excellent for slaws, salads, wraps, soups, and traditional cabbage rolls. Its refined flavor and crisp texture make it a versatile choice for both raw and cooked dishes.
