Swiss Chard

Positive effects on eyes bones and teeth. Reduced risk of tumors.

Description of Swiss Chard.

Swiss chard (Beta vulgaris) is a leafy vegetable that belongs to the Chenopodiaceae family.
From its herbaceous stem, large, glossy, and fleshy green leaves grow, distinguished by prominent, light-colored central veins. Both the leaves and the tender portion of the stalk are consumed, offering a very sweet taste.
Rich in micronutrients such as calcium, iron, potassium, and phosphorus, as well as insoluble fibers, Swiss chard is a diuretic and detoxifying vegetable. It is beneficial for the intestine and helps regulate blood sugar levels.
It is enjoyed cooked, either alone or as an ingredient in many complex recipes.

The seed is a cluster, meaning that several plants grow per cell. To ensure a uniform and high-quality standard, thinning is performed.

Vivai Bacchetto produces Swiss chard seedlings in 170-cell containers, and occasionally in 228-cell containers.

Agata Luty-Grzegorzak
Owner, Luty Jacek Sp.zo.o.Sp.k.
Our company has been a client of Vivai Bacchetto for many years, and this collaboration has continued over time because the service has always been highly efficient, punctual, and of excellent quality. For us horticulturists and agronomists, who are highly dependent on variables such as climatic conditions and market demands, it is very important to be able to count on a partner who can adequately satisfy even “last minute” needs. Vivai Bacchetto’s professionalism is simply impeccable.

I have been buying from Vivai Bacchetto for some time. The company has grown a lot since I first met it and has managed to maintain an “almost family” identity. The quality of the plants is good and consistent and the service is fast and attentive to the needs of my company. Reliable company and people.
