Watercress

Watercress is the only food to receive a perfect score from ANDI and the CDC. It’s globally known as green, famous for its flavor and delicate crunch. With over 50 essential nutrients, watercress is a superfood offering a distinctive taste that stands out from many of the muted flavors other salad greens provide. For over 150 years, B&W has specialized in baby leaves, with a singular focus on quality. Since 1870, our varieties have been selected for superior flavor and consistent appearance.
