Chicory seeds for growing fresh greens and a coffee substitute. Browse our selection of radicchio, endive, and wild chicory varieties.
Chicory is a versatile plant with edible leaves, roots used as a coffee substitute, and forage potential, while radicchio is a specific, red-leafed variety of chicory prized for its bitter taste that mellows when cooked. Both share medicinal, nutritional, and culinary uses, with the leaves often used raw in salads or roasted, and the roots valued for fiber and inulin.
Some Chicory form tight heads, while others are loose-leaved. Most originate in Italy. Chicories are closely related to lettuces, but heartier and with a bitter taste.
