Suitable for vegetarians and vegans.We’re sourcing Forced Rhubarb direct from Jonathan and Robert in the Rhubarb Triangle, a nine-square mile area of Yorkshire renowned for its cold, damp climate and nitrogen-rich soil - the ideal growing conditions for rhubarb. The Forced Rhubarb growing process begins two years in advance when the crowns are planted outside in open fields to reach maturity and then after two summers are transported inside forcing sheds. Hand-harvested by candlelight, the two main varieties are Stockbridge Harbinger and Stockbridge Arrow varieties, known for elongated, fibreless stalks and deep gradient of colour.
