Cabbage, Golden Acre
(Brassica oleracea var. capitata)

Golden Acre is a classic early cabbage heirloom known for its compact plants, round dense heads, and reliable spring harvests. This variety produces medium-sized heads with crisp, tender leaves and mild flavor. Its smaller plant size makes it well suited to intensive garden beds and succession planting for steady cabbage harvests.

Key Characteristics

  • Early, Reliable Harvest
    Golden Acre matures quickly and is often among the first cabbages ready in the garden. Its dependable early production makes it ideal for spring planting and early summer harvests.
  • Compact Plants for Dense Planting
    Smaller plant size allows closer spacing than many cabbage varieties. This makes it well suited to raised beds, small gardens, and intensive growing systems.
  • Tender, Mild Leaves
    Heads are firm and tightly packed with crisp leaves and a mild, slightly sweet flavor. Excellent for slaws, fresh salads, steaming, or sautéing.
  • Uniform, Round Heads
    Produces consistent, smooth heads typically around 3–5 pounds, making harvest predictable and manageable.
