Growing Some Louisiana History- Boudreaux-Robert Heirloom Mirliton

Описание: My segment highlighting the Louisiana varieties I am growing. I'll share the history as I know it as well as any sources on how to get them that I have at the time of the video.

Mirliton! My favorite fruit/vegetable to grow. I give a brief overview on their history, and we'll visit the ones I am growing in my backyard, the Boudreaux-Robert Heirloom Mirliton variety.

Do you have a special mirliton memory? Did your Pepere, Paw Paw, or Dad grow them? Did you get them from a favorite farmer? Do you grow them? Please share your memories in the comments below or at [email protected] as well as your favorite way to eat them and why they are your favorite. Thanks!

Thank you to the late Daniel Boudreaux, Sr. and Lawrence "Chicken" Robert for keeping this variety going! You can read more about Mr. Boudreaux through his online obituary - https://obits.nola.com/us/obituaries/...
