Gilfeather Turnip
This sweet and creamy cross between a turnip and rutabaga is a New England heirloom, so precious to the area it has been declared the state vegetable. Compared to rutabagas, Gilfeather turnips have green shoulders, not purple, and they have a white flesh, not yellow. One big Gilfeather turnip is enough for a meal or two, definitely worth including in your roasted root medleys. Photo - Southern Exposure Seed Exchange
