5 fantastic facts about ✨TURNIPS✨ 🌱The art of pumpkin carving started with the Irish who carved faces into turnips 🌱Turnips were one of the first root vegetables to ever be eaten  🌱 Romans used turnips as weapons, throwing them at politicians, bad actors on stage and pretty much anyone they didn’t like  🌱 George Washington fed his troops turnips to keep them alive during the harsh winters of the Revolutionary War  🌱 The term “turnip eater” was slang for “idiot” and I think it’s high time we brought it back.  Do you enjoy eating turnips or do you leave those for the rabbits?  #turnip #turnips #vegetable #root #roots #healthy #farm #farmers #farming #ag #agricultura #agriculture #education #educational #helpful #tip #tips #didyouknow #fact #facts #funfact #history #georgewashington #romans #rome #plant #plants #garden #gardening #shilohfarm
