Broccoli is one of the weirdest looking plants you’ll ever see growing in a field. Just like its cousins cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and cabbage. The stalks shoot up from a pile of weeds looking like nothing so much as space alien flowers.
There’s an art to the harvest – and a very large knife is involved. Host Chip Carter got a lesson in chopping broccoli at Smith Farms in Hastings, FL in this bonus scene from Where The Food Comes From Season 3, E8 – “Eat Your Broccoli!” – airing Friday night at 9:30 p.m. and 12:30 a.m. only on RFD-TV.
