by Nora_in_Vancouver Remarks: Heritage Park, Calgary Alberta. This is a demonstration field of oats that will be harvested using only the equipment and techniques available to early prairie settlers. When driving by, unripe oat fields have a noticably "bluish" colour. August 11, 2002.     by Nora_in_Vancouver
