Fun Facts: Broccoli, which originated in Italy on the Mediterranean coast, was brought to the United States by Thomas Jefferson. He was fond of the vegetable and grew it on his estate in Monticello beginning in 1767. Today China is the world’s top broccoli producer, growing eight million tons a year.
