Botany Bistro To-Go: Brassicaceae Family

There’s always a table reserved for you at the Botany Bistro! Here you can munch on bite-sized botany as you savor the science of plants. In 2025, Season 2 of this free, virtual botanical banquet is focused on 24 different plant families, exploring their unique characteristics and ways they have adapted through time. New videos are uploaded on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month at noon. Want a link to each video once it’s up? Sign up here!

This session is all about the Brassicaceae family, an economically important family of flowering plants commonly known as the mustards, the crucifers or the cabbage family. The family contains species such as cabbage, kale, cauliflower, broccoli and collards.

Seasonally, Botany Bistro will also meet virtually “live” to celebrate the equinoxes/solstices, chat about our adventures, hear about Mary’s behind the scenes bloopers and address questions sent in via the form linked in each video’s description on our YouTube channel.
