November’s Harvest of the Month is… Sweet Potatoes!

Sweet potatoes are high in vitamins A, B5, B6, thiamin (B1), niacin (B3), and riboflavin (B2).

Nourish’s Harvest of the Month is an initiative that focuses on seasonally relevant foods that can be sourced locally in Wisconsin. Nourish operates its nutrition programming and education on a three-year rotation of these crops, featuring one crop a month. Check back here monthly or sign up for our email newsletter to find out what we’re currently harvesting. We will share awesome recipes as well as some interesting educational pieces that you can share with others.

Sweet potatoes are not related to potatoes… they belong to the morning glory family! Sweet potatoes are a tropical, long season vegetable that grows best in long hot summers.
