Our seed is grown in the Inter-Mountain areas where climatic conditions favor best 
production of seed, high in germination and purity. 
As with other biennials, planting stocks are selected, developed and maintained at our 
Minnesota breeding grounds. 
Seed stocks are bred and selected for strength and uniformity of top; color, shape, 
smoothness and size of root. Special consideration is given to exterior and interior color,

The selected roots are carefully stored and the following spring resorted and planted 
in isolated fields for seed production.
