Kale (Brassica oleracea) and the harvest

For my Dutch followers : Boerenkool
Pic. taken on a Sunday , and as some of the farmers are very strictly, no work on Sunday, it`s a day of rest.

It looks as though it will soon be ready to cut and eat. Farmers need days of

[Myrna O'Hara]

OK I can't say I enjoy the flavor of this green.

[Darlene]

Love the green. What a great collage. How nice to take Sunday off for some of the farmers.

I like kale. In small amounts. With lots of other things to cover up the taste. I never knew the plants grew so big! Nice shot

[Becca Hayes]

Is that the harvester on the right? We really only have three types of farms around my area - corn, soybeans and tomatoes. None of those have a harvester like the one in your photo tho. And that's very healthy-looking kale too!

[Kathy]

How interesting. I like kale, especially young tender leaves. I've not seen a field of it nor have I seen a harvester like this one. You make learning so much fun.

[Carren]

Very nice my friend! I like kale!

[Sylvia du Toit]

Thanks for sharing we do learn a lot.

Googled and saw kale must be broccoli as we know it here.

[Anja]

Dat is wel heel veel boerenkool! Lekker!

[Denise Wood]

Terrific captures :)

Gorgeous diptych. So much to learn from your photography.

[Merrelyn]

Great shots, I'm afraid that kale isn't very high on my list of preferred vegetables. There are so many that are much more tasty.

Love broccoli! fav.

[Jane Morley]

Love the angles here.

So interesting to see a field of kale. It has become very popular in the US as a healthy food. Thanks for sharing.

[Linda]

Love kale and I new it when I saw this lovely capture of this field and farm. Lovely the way the curls on the leaves are focused. FAV

Deze week stamppot boerenkool gegeten, niet met rookworst, maar met sausages. Mooie collage.
