Canadian Tulip Festival / Festival Canadien des Tulipes in Ottawa Canada
The Canadian Tulip Festival / Festival Canadien des Tulipes in Ottawa the capital city of Canada
The Canadian Tulip Festival began after the Second World War, when Princess Juliana of the Netherlands presented Ottawa with 100,000 tulip bulbs as a token of friendship in 1945.
Canada had provided asylum for the Dutch royal family during the war and played a strong role in the Netherlands’ liberation. While the royal family sought refuge in Ottawa, Princess Juliana gave birth to Princess Margriet on January 19th 1943 at the Ottawa Civic Hospital. The Canadian government temporarily declared the room “Dutch soil,” to ensure that the Princess would remain in line for the throne.
The Netherlands continues to give Ottawa 20,000 tulip bulbs every year.
Ottawa’s first Canadian Tulip Festival took place in May 1953 and opened with an inauguration ceremony at Parliament Hill.
The Canadian Tulip Festival has grown into the largest annual display of tulips in North America.
The Canadian Tulip Festival is also a celebration of the return of spring, with over a million tulips in 50 varieties blooming in public spaces across the National Capital Region.

Breezy Willow Farm: from the Land to the Hand
Breezy Willow Farm Video Brings the Community Together in a Peaceful, Natural Setting; Markets CSA Program
The Caulders have been growing vegetables and berries in Howard County, Maryland for Friends and Neighbors for over 35 years. We’re about Community; the Community that Supports Agriculture at Breezy Willow Farm.
Taking you to the Caulder's family farm in rural Howard County, Maryland, the newly released video, Breezy Willow Farm: from the Land and the Hand, leads you through their day, from sunrise when their Rhode Island Red wakes them, through gathering eggs from their lovely, cage-free heritage laying hens, showing the love to their friendly Alpacas who provide the soft fiber, to applying sustainable farming practices using natural growing methods, and hand-picking top quality produce for the farm's CSA share members.
Community-Supported Agriculture at Breezy Willow Farm
We are a place that you can come enjoy community while supporting the Breezy Willow Farm Community- Supported Agriculture (CSA) program, says RJ (Rose) Caulder who started her CSA program in her kitchen with just 12 shares in 2004. Since then, the family farm's CSA program has grown to include over 700 shares with some members traveling from nearly 50 miles away to obtain their shares.
We set ourselves apart from other CSAs by offering Value-Added products, adds Jason Caulder.
The Caulders offer their Breezy Willow Farm community two seasonal Value-Added CSA programs, the Early-Bird share program that runs March-May and their Summer/Fall share program that runs June-November, with pick-up days at the farm and at several convenient locations throughout Howard County.
When they arrive, our CSA members check in to see what a bountiful share they will receive, says Jason Caulder. Our members are able to select and receive between 10 and 11 seasonal, locally grown and/or produced items weekly. In addition to an assortment of 8 fruits and veggies, our members receive Value-Added products - farm-fresh eggs and premium breads from Great Harvest or The Breadery - each week. You don't purchase them as extra items. Herbs will be also be included when available at no extra charge.
So how does the community sign up for one or both of Breezy Willow Farm's seasonal CSA programs? To learn more about Breezy Willow Farm's seasonal CSA programs and to sign up, visit Breezy Willow Farm's website - BreezyWillowFarm.com - where you may also find an abundance of recipes and tips on how to store and prepare the farm-fresh products provided each week through the CSA program.
Bringing the Community Together
What else does Breezy Willow Farm offer its community? Breezy Willow Farm welcomes you to take a drive in the country, to come together at the farm as a community. The farm is a great, natural setting for families to visit where friendly alpacas and friendly staff are waiting to greet you. Children will see where their food is actually grown and ask questions. There are also other opportunities for the community to become involved, such as the chance to participate through the farm's work-for-shares program.
When the community supports our local farm they are helping to keep agriculture alive in their own community of Howard County, says RJ. In addition, when members sign up, they are feeding other families in need. We donate shares to needy families each week. All extra vegetables each week are picked by volunteers in the community and are donated to the Howard County Food Bank. Nothing on Breezy Willow Farm is ever wasted.
The community is invited to visit farm store every Saturday, 10am to 2pm to pick up seasonally fresh, local produce and goods such as local cheeses, honey and breads. The farm store also has gift items such as Breezy Willow Farm's hand-made soaps and scarves or socks made from the soft fiber provided by the Alpacas.
A Peaceful, Natural Setting
Breezy Willow Farm: from the Land and the Hand was produced keeping in mind the serenity found on Breezy Willow Farm. Colamiles provided a special rendention of Half Acre (Cover: Hem) making it local to the State of Maryland. The lyrics to this special recording are beautiful, soul-soothing and were slightly modified to hearken us back to some of those memories that we love about living here in Maryland, which is especially true for the Caulders at their family-run farm, Breezy Willow Farm, where there is a peaceful, natural setting they call home. The video was produced by Alice Settle-Raskin of Alice's AgriMaryland for and in cooperation with Breezy Willow Farm.

The Canadian Tulip Festival
The Canadian Tulip Festival was established to celebrate the historic Royal gift of tulips from the Dutch to Canadians immediately following the Second World War as a symbol of international friendship. The Festival preserves the memorable role of the Canadian troops in the liberation of the Netherlands and Europe, as well as commemorates the birth of Dutch Princess Margriet in Ottawa during World War II—the only royal personage ever born in Canada.
Public Garden Tour (Tulips and Magnolias) - Ottawa Tulip Festival 2019
Today, I had a big to-do list, but I decided to take a bit of a break around noon to visit the Ottawa Tulip festival at Commissioners Park by Dow’s Lake in the City of Ottawa (Canada’s Capital). This park is pretty close to where I live and there was finally some action today. It was Mother’s Day and I loved the fact that all the kids made sure to be extra dramatic for their moms, haha. Also, if you pay close attention, you will see that someone brought their cat to the Tulip Festival (this person is my hero).
Today’s video features different varieties of tulips imported from Holland, magnolia trees and a forsythia bush (the one at the end, with the yellow flowers).

I think the tone of my channel is going to be different over the next few weeks (maybe months). I have not been doing well (not well at all), even though I was in good spirits today. In fact, today was a good day, mostly because I started going to counseling again. I found a clinic not too far from my workplace and I am in the very beginning of my journey to healing all over again. I made a video (that I then made private) talking about some of my latest struggles. I was so happy and excited at first to join the Mental Health Community of YouTube and share my personal stories. But let’s just say that my personal life has taken a few hits lately, which made me realize that I am not as strong and “recovered” as I thought. I wish I could make a video and talk about all this stuff, but I can’t make these issues public at the moment, and I don’t even have the strength to talk about them. And worst of all, some people take great pleasure in my suffering and I don’t want to give them the satisfaction of showing them that I am not doing well. I will be better soon. I promise you guys.
So, I am back to making the types of videos I love to do; city tours and what not. Maybe I will try and talk more about creativity and stuff like that over the next few weeks. It will all depend on how I feel.
I hope that this video is a good reminder to always take time to stop and smell the flowers. I absolutely love gardens, flowers, plants, nature and animals. They always remind me that nothing is that big of a deal (even if everything is a big deal). Oy! Alright, well, I am done for tonight.
Thanks for watching and reading. xoxo

Speaker shown in this video:
Loren Taves
Owner, Taves Family Farms and Applebarn Pumpkin Farm
Located in Abbotsford, BC, Taves Family Farms was established in 1969 by Loren Taves’ parents. After Loren graduated, he and his brother decided to pursue farming and focused on niche markets, starting with gooseberries and then apples that were unique to coastal climates. Shortly afterwards, Loren started growing red and black currants followed by artisan peppers and tomatoes.Today, Taves Family Farms consists of 4.5 acres of greenhouses that grow artisan vegetables.
The Taves are active in farmers’ markets, extending from Abbotsford to Vancouver, where they sell their 100% Natural Apple Cider (picked, pressed and bottled on site), plums, pears, gooseberries, currants, several varieties of apples and tomatoes, miniature peppers and cucumbers, and eggplant.
“Since 1998, I have been involved in selling our produce at farmers’ markets and directly to customers at the farm gate. This lead me to believe that by participating in the direct sale of the food we grow, it’s an important part of the farm as it informs not only the consumers about where the food is grown, and who grows it, but it also teaches the farmer about what consumers want and like. This important process continues on at the various farmers’ markets we attend and at the Applebarn every fall. It’s why we state with pride “Come to the Farm for a Taste of the Country.” (Loren Taves)
The entire operation is founded on environmentally responsible and ethical farming practices, innovation, community, and quality. In 1990, Loren and his wife, Corinne Taves, created the Applebarn—a destination designed for ‘fall family’ fun. Loren’s philosophy is to “continue perfecting the complex relationship between the land and resources and the business of growing food.” He is passionate about farming, and will continue to develop the important and direct connection between the harvest of great food and the families that enjoy it.
