ACROSS CANADA IN CAMPER VAN: YELLOW FIELDS IN MANITOBA ARE AMAZING!
Driving across Canada, I learned that every summer, vast expanses of the prairie in Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta, turn a bright shade of yellow. These are Canola fields reaching peak bloom.

Oil makes up nearly 45% of a canola seed. The seeds are crushed to make canola oil. It is considered to be a “healthy” oil because like olive oil, it is high in monounsaturated fat (63%). Its light texture, taste and high smoke point make it a versatile choice for home and commercial kitchens.

Canola meal, the part left over after the seeds are crushed, is used for animal feed and a plant-based protein for human diets, as well.

Canola has become one of Canada's most valuable agricultural exports and an important source of income for 43,000 Canadian farmers. Today more than 207,000 Canadian jobs are linked to canola – and the crop's potential continues to grow. Renewable biofuels are the latest opportunity

I have been in my campervan for 2 months, and am excited to be driving back to my home in the Okanagan Valley!
