Rapeseed Fields Encircle the Forest - Personalised Poster

What's nice about these rapeseed fields are the sloping landscape they were grown on. Not only did they give a pleasant view of the small forest they surround but also the downland in the distance complemented by blue skies and clouds. LOCATION: These stunning fields are located in the Kennington suburb of Ashford in Kent, the Garden of England, in the United Kingdom. They are owned and managed by Hinxhill. The hills in the distance are part of the Kent Downs, Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty(AONB). Kennington is blessed to have its western, northern, and eastern areas surrounded by the countryside, thus, giving many options for dog & nature walkers, runners, and horse riders. SOME FACTS: Both rapeseed and canola are members of the cabbage family and have bright yellow flowers. In the UK, rapeseed and canola are considered to be the same thing, but the oil may be cold-pressed. Cold-pressed rapeseed oil is considered to be healthier from improved nutrient retention. Canola is a type of rapeseed. In the 1970s, canola was created through traditional plant cross-breeding by removing glucosinolates and erucic acid from the rapeseed. In high doses, erucic acid was believed to be inedible or toxic. The new plant was renamed “canola,” a combination of “Canadian” and “oil” (or ola) to clarify the difference. For this reason, canola is not available in Europe.
