		The Brussels sprout is a cool season crop, belonging to the cabbage family, and closely related to cauliflower, broccoli, kale, collards, etc. Like cauliflower, it thrives best in a cool humid climate, thus commercial production of this crop is concentrated in the "fog-belt" of California with limited production in the Long Island, New York area.
		Sprouts can be picked in hampers or baskets and hauled out of the field as soon as possible for packaging and refrigeration.
		Sprouts should be cleaned, trimmed of loose leaves, and sorted to remove those that are soft, damaged, or too large size.
