Compact Heads and Sweet, Vivid Flavor
Golden Acre Cabbage Beloved heirloom is prized for being one of the earliest-maturing cabbages available, making it the perfect choice for home gardeners.
‘Golden Acre’ produces charming, globe-shaped heads with a vibrant light-green color and a remarkably crisp, tender texture. Its flavour is notably delicate and sweet, lacking the peppery bite sometimes found in larger, late-season cabbages. Because it grows into a compact, space-saving plant, it’s ideal for smaller garden beds or intensive permaculture setups. Whether you’re crafting a crunchy summer slaw, fermenting a small batch of sauerkraut, or lightly sautéing with butter, this cabbage is a gourmet delight.

Gardener’s Tip: Cabbages are heavy feeders—prepare your soil well with aged compost. As the heads begin to form, you can hill up the soil around the base to stabilize the heavy plant. Keep a eye out for signs of Cabbage White Butterfly larvae on the outermost leaves and act early if found. Cabbage White Butterfly decoys can also be effective.
