Blooming spring

Rapeseed flowers are in full bloom, allowing people to enjoy a world completely bathed in yellow. These vibrant yellow beauties are a magnificent sight as you drive around the countryside. They only bloom for around 3-4 weeks in the springtime, less if there is heavy rain. Rapeseed is grown primarily for oil.

Happy Birthday!

Fields and fields… and more fields.

Many crops are grown in Normandy: wheat, rapeseed, field peas, sugar beet… Local soil and climatic conditions usually ensure higher yields than the national average. Most of them are exported.
