The cabbage family is very large with many varieties.
Some of them are eaten as green leaves.
They are very good for our health - full of vitamins and minerals.
We see them growing in fields all around Cornwall.
They have many names -
cabbages, kale, collards, greens, etc.
Sometimes we eat the little flowers -
green broccoli and white cauliflower.
There is purple cauliflower as well.
For Christmas dinner we (will) eat small Brussels sprouts
with our roast turkey.
In Cornwall we grow an important member of the cabbage family
for its fat root.
Turnip is an essential ingredient in every pasty.
And, that’s not all.
We see fields full of yellow flowers
(and not all of them are daffodils).
Farmers grow oilseed rape for the oil in the seeds.
They drop the seeds on the road
and the plants grow in the hedges.
