(Gold of Pleasure, Wild Flax, German Sesame, Siberian Oilseed) native to Northern Europe.  An ancient oilseed crop, loaded with Omega 3 fatty acids and vitamin E.  The oil is a delicious raw condiment, and is a stabile and tasty cooking oil.  The seeds themselves are excellent for feeding to poultry, giving exceptional egg production.  Other stock can benefit from the feed value of this seed, as well.  Also used for producing biodiesel.  The plant is hardy to the temperate north and gives high yields of clean burning fuel. The plant has been used by humans for at least 4,000 years (remains in Switzerland date it to the Neolithic). Prepare a weed-free seedbed in spring.  Sprinkle the seed on the surface of the bed and press in.  Keep evenly moist until germination.  Harvest when the seed is fully mature and hard. Camelina gives fast turnaround and high yield per input.
