Early Jersey Wakefield is a small, short-season cabbage with sweet and flavorful cone-shaped heads of about two pounds each. Jersey City, NJ, farmer and seedsman Francis Brill acquired seeds of an English variety, Early Wakefield, and debuted his improved “Early Jersey Wakefield” in 1840. Peter Henderson raved about Brill’s cabbage, saying in 1867 that he could “find nothing equal to it.” Early Jersey Wakefield began appearing in seed catalogs in the late 1860s and quickly found a fervent fan base and wide distribution. This one deserves a place in every home garden!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Tips:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early Jersey Wakefield cabbage grows best in fertile, well-draining soil with a pH of 6.0-7.5, ensuring full sun and consistent moisture to prevent splitting.
