Alfalfa

Alfalfa is a perennial grown worldwide. It’s used as a feedstock for cattle. It looks like a clover. But it can grow to a height of 2 to 3 feet. It blooms in the summer with purple or blue flowers.
they are typically high in vitamin K and also contain many other nutrients, including vitamin C, copper, manganese and folate.

Alfalfa sprouts contain the same nutrients and are also very low in calories.
At harvest time, alfalfa is mowed, field dried, and baled. The baled hay can be fed directly to cattle
