Native to the Mediterranean region, celery in its wild form is called smallage, and it is grown to this day for flavoring. The Greeks called it selinon, and as such it is mentioned in Homer's Odyssey, dating from 850 BC. A member of the carrot family, celery is first recorded as a plant in France in 1623 and was probably developed either there or in Italy.
America’s celery industry was spawned in the 1850’s when celery seeds were imported from Scotland the areas surrounding Kalamazoo, Michigan. Dutch farmers who settled there had the knowledge and skills necessary for utilizing muck soils (dark, fertile soils containing decomposed vegetable matter) to grow what is now a multi-million dollar crop. Most Michigan celery is of the green or "Pascal" variety.
