What Is Salad Savoy?
Salad Savoy® is the namesake of the Salad Savoy Corporation. After spending time in Europe in the 1980s, John Moore, founder and owner of the Salad Savoy Corporation, developed a passion for colorful vegetables. He was so inspired, he decided to develop a new veggie of his own, which he named salad savoy.
Salad Savoy is truly a one-of-a-kind veggie! It’s a cross between kale and other members of the Brassica genus (the Brassica genus include crops such as cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli).
