In the scientific world, many experts felt that at least 4,000 to 5,000 years ago, Sunflowers were a cultivated food crop in what is now the eastern United States. It was believed that Sunflower farming spread south from eastern North America to Mexico. However, another later study discovered Sunflower plant remains in a dry cave in Mexico that were at least from the year 2600 BC leading to a hypothesis that assumed the farming of Sunflowers began in Mexico and moved northward.

It is a tropical variety known strictly as a warm weather crop and must be grown...

It was the six miniature candy bars she had stored in the mug to hide from everybody else. When we stopped laughing, we all enjoyed the treat. When the Akwesasne Senior Games are on it...
