Wholesale Specialty Lettuces and Greens
Salad is the highest-margin course on most menus and the most fragile item in most walk-ins. Harvest Sensations supplies specialty lettuces and greens to restaurants, hotels, caterers and retail programs nationwide, moving them on a tight cold chain out of Miami and Los Angeles.
Our range covers the full spectrum from soft baby leaf to the bitter chicories, so a kitchen can build texture and color into a salad without buying from three suppliers.
Lettuces and Greens We Carry
- Mixed Baby Lettuces — the core blend: green and red oak, green and red romaine, tango and lollo.
Frisée, lollo rossa, radicchio, Belgian endive, mizuna, tatsoi, arugula and full-size specialty heads are available through the season, along with organic kale and chopped kale for retail programs.
Why Chicories Belong on Your Order
Bitterness is the flavor most American salads are missing. Radicchio, endive and frisée give a salad structure that soft leaf cannot, they hold dressing without collapsing, and they hold up on a buffet or in a catering pan far longer than baby leaf. They also cost less per usable ounce because there is almost no trim loss.
Handling Baby Leaf
Baby lettuces are 95 percent water with almost no cuticle to protect them. Hold at 34–38°F, never below freezing, never in direct fan airflow, and never with ethylene producers — apples, melons, bananas and tomatoes will brown leaf edges within a day. Keep bags closed until service and do not re-wash pre-washed product, which reintroduces both water and risk.
