A while ago I did a video where I gave all of you guys a tour of my farm. But it was way back in the early Spring, and I said during that video that I would give you another tour later in the year. Well, today’s the day. We’re gonna have a look at the farm, and while we’re looking at the farm I’ll try to teach you some words and phrases to help you learn English. So on our farm we grow what’s called “cut flowers”. The flowers that you see here are called zinnias and we harvest the zinnias when you harvest a flower it means you go out and cut them. And we bring them into our barn where my wife spends a lot of time putting the flowers into bouquets, and we sell the bouquets at a local market. I’ll get a little closer here. This type of zinnia is called, “Oklahoma” and it’s a small pink flower as you can see and it’s very very beautiful. One of the places where we sell our flowers is on a wagon that we have along the road. If you look out this way you’ll see the road, and people drive in during the day, there’s not a lot of flowers out here right now, and they’ll stop in and they’ll buy flowers from us. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed but you can kind of hear a little bit of thunder in the background. If you look that way you’ll see that the sky is very very very dark. And we’re expecting a little bit of rain possibly this afternoon. So hopefully I can get this video done before, before that rain comes. So I’m out in the other part of the farm, oh I’m not sure did you see my hat today? It says, “Canada” on it, because I’m Canadian. I’m at the other half of the farm today and I’ll turn the camera around in a sec and let you see what I’m looking at here. In this bed we have some more zinnias. There’s also plants in this bed that we would call, “weeds”. So a weed is this type of plant, a weed is plant that grows and you don’t really want it there. I’m not sure what the word for weed is in your language. We have lots of flowers, but we also have lots of weeds. These flowers here are called, “Sweet William” There another flowers that’s quite popular when we sell our flowers at the market. It has a beautiful colour. And I’ll take you over this way and we’ll look at another flower, I’ll show you this side first, these are called, “Lisianthus” and lisianthus are just a beautiful flower. They look a little bit like a rose. This is Jen the Canadian, she’s the main grower, and those of some flowers that she grew. Just gonna stop for a moment and let you have another look at the sky behind me. You can see that it’s quite dark. I think it’s gonna start raining probably in about half an hour. I think we’re gonna get quite a downpour. A downpour is when you get a lot of rain all at once. So it will be pouring rain in about half an hour and I’ll make sure I come outside and shoot some video of that. **Note: All images used under: CC0 License ✓ Free for personal and commercial use ✓ No attribution required From pexels.com or pixabay.com
