Growing Method

BelOrta’s rhubarb is grown outdoors in open fields. This means the plants grow in the open air, without protection like greenhouses. This method allows the rhubarb to develop naturally and make the most of the nutrients in the soil. As a result, the rhubarb has a firm texture and full flavour. So you can enjoy fresh, healthy rhubarb straight from local soil.
