Fruits and vegetables from Quebec - RHÉA DUFRESNE, Florence Sabatier

In Quebec, nature offers us a feast of fruits and vegetables almost year-round. You just need to know the right places and the right time to harvest carrots, cabbage, lettuce, and to pick apples, cherries, strawberries, and all sorts of other natural delights. In this informative picture book, you'll learn to recognize different varieties of fruits and vegetables, as well as the regions of Quebec where you can go to harvest them. You'll discover that an asparagus plant can produce for 15 to 25 years without needing to be replanted, that the field where cranberries grow must be flooded to harvest them, and that nuts like hazelnuts and pistachios are fruits! To make identification easier, the information and photos in this book have been carefully selected and verified by a horticultural technician. Games and challenges at the end of the book will renew the joy of discovery with each outing.
