Newfie Enjoys Fresh Carrots Year Round 

Cecil Francis from La Polie has discovered how to eat fresh carrots year round.  His secret is two large pots of mud in the basement of his home.  He picks the carrots fresh from the garden and replants the carrots in the mud pot with the green stems sticking out.  Cecile picks the carrot out of the mud and claims that the carrot is as fresh as when he picked it in September.
