Black Toscana Kale (also called Nero di Toscana or Cavolo Nero) is an heirloom leafy green originating from Tuscany, Italy. It produces deep dark green, textured leaves that are rich in flavor and nutrients like vitamins A, C, and K. This variety is hardy, cold tolerant, and well suited for home garden beds, raised beds, and larger containers. Black Toscana kale leaves are versatile in cooking — excellent fresh, sautéed, or added to soups and smoothies.
