CROSS VALLEY FARMS®
Scarlet Butter Lettuce
Cross Valley Farms® Scarlet Butter Lettuce is a vibrant twist on classic butter lettuce. This field-packed lettuce is as beautiful to look at as it is to taste. With its dramatic dual-colored red and green leaves; sweet, subtle flavor and soft buttery texture, you can elevate your lettuce options with this easy-to-prep whole head of lettuce.
