Little Gem Lettuce for Supreme Spring Salads!

Little Gems_Vertical.jpg

OGC sees a lot of lettuce come across our dock, so when coworkers can’t stop talking about Little Gem lettuce, you know it has to be something special! 

The compact heads of this lettuce are perfect for a dinner-sized salad for one, and this fridge-hearty variety will also happily hang tight while you pluck a few leaves at a time to stuff into a sandwich. Your shoppers’ favorite salad dressings will cling to the crinkly crevasses of the leaves of this easy-to-clean and perfectly-petite sized variety. With little-to-no prep required, eaters will make quick work of incorporating Little Gem lettuce leaves into their meals.

With the perfect balance of buttery and crisp and bursting with fresh flavor, even breaking apart a Little Gem produces a satisfying sound as you free the leaves from its core. 

Growing in varieties of both shades of green and red, OGC is currently featuring Red Little Gem Lettuce from our friends at Tomatero Organic Farm in Watsonville, California.   

Include a case or two of Little Gem on your next order, and make sure to try it yourself so that you know what it’s all about! Contact your Account Rep for more details.
