Have a look at this gorgeous, Ontario Orange Cauliflower from Harvest Barn Country Markets.

Their cauliflower super fresh and the color is very pretty.

By means of a genetic mutation, some cauliflowers have been hybridized, resulting in vibrant shades of orange, yellow, green and purple cauliflower curds (heads), allowing chefs to get more creative when preparing cauliflower.

Imagine presenting cauliflower in a combination of all the available colors, in a see thru serving dish – it would be very impressive.

Cauliflower is delicious raw, cooked or roasted, and the health benefits of high beta carotene, vitamin A & vitamin C, folate, selenium, calcium and fiber are a definite plus. The orange cauliflower has a higher vitamin A content than others.

My Ontario orange cauliflower came from Harvest Barn Country Market in Niagara-on-the-Lake, one of two local locations. with the other in St. Catharines, southern Ontario. Online, check them out @:

A plus for Harvest Barn is that they ensure that, wherever possible, the fresh produce and other quality products with which they stock their markets, are grown or produced within a 100 mile radius of their two locations.

Our carbon footprint on this planet concerns many of us, and when you purchase products that are not imported and don’t travel excessive distances in order to reach the market, you are helping to preserve our suffering planet. Produce you purchase can be harvested and transported at optimum ripeness, it’s super fresh, and more likely to be blemish and bruise free.

Also, Harvest Barn Country Markets are supporting our local farmers and businesses, making it possible for our Ontario farmers to continue maintaining their farmlands, continue growing the food crops to feed us, and continue living the demanding farm lifestyle.
