MORGAN HILL, CA - Sakata Seed America is excited to introduce its top-quality beet line, specifically the golden variety Touchstone Gold. Sakata’s 2014 merger with Chriseed helped grow its line to include 16 unique beet varieties, boasting qualities such as wide adaptability, high yields, and fresh markets, according to a press release.
“Touchstone Gold is a very exciting variety for our beet program.
