Today is International Potato Day! There are so many ways to cook this versatile vegetable. We love our potatoes mashed, baked, grilled, as a potato salad or turned into poutine. What’s your favourite potato dish?

As you could imagine, the farm is in full flower during the summer. Here are some little known facts about our crop flowers in order of appearance in the photos:
Potato flowers are different colours depending on the variety of potato. These gorgeous pink flowers are a yellow variety. Male sweet corn flowers are commonly called tassels and their primary function is to produce pollen. Pumpkin flowers open every morning for only 6 hours and close during the heat of the day. Wheat flowers are called spikelets and are often dried and used in bridal bouquets. Alfalfa flowers are in the pea family and they can be found in our hay. You can visit “Bugs & Blossoms” to see some other beautiful flowers that can be found on our farm. |
