What is Baby kale?
Young, tender kale leaves harvested small — sweeter and far less fibrous than mature bunched kale, so they need no stripping or massaging. Washed and ready by the case.
Raw in salads and grain bowls, quick-sautéed for sides, folded into eggs and frittatas, or blended into smoothies and juices at NYC cafes. Sturdier than baby spinach, so it holds a warm dressing.

Why the number moves
NYC produce runs through the high-volume houses that feed Hunts Point and the wider metro — California, Florida, Mexico, and Northeast farms when they're in season. That's why a case rate on baby kale can shift week to week.
It's held pretty steady across the year. Buying what's in season is still the most reliable way to keep produce cost in check.
Seasonality in the Northeast
A cool-season green at its best fall through spring; Northeast and East Coast fields lead, with California and Arizona covering the warmer months.
Per case or per pound?
Produce is sold by the case, with a per-pound rate shown where it helps you compare. Order on the unit that matches your prep so you're not throwing money out on shrink — perishables don't wait.
Holds a few days longer than baby spinach or arugula, but still buy to a 3–4 day turn. Keep it cold and dry; check for yellowing at the case bottom.
