Rhubarb is a wonderful plant, with many uses and application. This web site is all about rhubarb. Since June 1994 these web pages have been available to anyone interested in gaining an understanding and appreciation of this fine vegetable. This compendium is a collection of rhubarb information from many sources.

Much of the information is from world wide web pages or postings to various news groups (rec.gardens, rec.food.cooking, rec.food.recipes), some is from my own personal rhubarb growing experience, and some has been directly contributed by friends, associates, and visitors to The Rhubarb Compendium.

This compendium is divided into a series of short chapters to make reading easy and downloading the many (conveniently sized) images faster. Start with the Compendium Table Of Contents or proceed directly to the Rhubarb Recipes Index. Use the links below to get started or use the Navigation on the right.

Please feel free to email me with comments, suggestions, or recipe contributions.

This is a work in progress. I'm moving the old Rhubarb Compendium from a rats-nest of hand edited HTML files (yes, it was a pain to maintain that way, so I mostly didn't) to a Drupal managed web site. While I'm doing that I'm also attempting to clean up the many typos & spelling mistakes, weed out the out-of-date information, and insert the new stuff I've accumulated. Its almost done. Please bear with me until all of the wrinkles are ironed out. If you have any problems please drop me an email.

Wow! Just found your site. Looks great. And just in time too. Thanks! -- Mary

Your spelling, grammar and punctuation are horrible. You can't even spell "rhubarb" right in some instances. When one visits this page, the first thing they think of is AMATEUR, ILLITERATE MORON. -- Ron
