Our 1st Annual Parsnip Contest


Parsnips take 100 days from seed to mature! We gave you a head start!!
We have a few parsnips started in pots.

We would like any child (12 and under) who is interested in growing a parsnip to take one home and plant it.

On September 26, 2010 dig up your parsnip (leave the soil and leaves on it)
and bring it to the farm at 1:30pm for judging.


A few things you should know about parsnips:
  • Parsnips grow really long.
  • Parsnips like deep, loose soil;
  • Plenty of water and sunshine;
  • And, to be kept free from weeds.

1st Prize goes to the Biggest, Longest Parsnip!

2nd Prize goes to the Best Looking Parsnip!!

3rd Prize to the Weirdest Looking Parsnip!!!

Contest begins Monday, June 7th. Stop by and pick up your parsnip today!
