Rhubarb Capital of Minnesota
By Linda Tancs
Lanesboro, Minnesota is the rhubarb capital of the state. Is rhubarb a fruit or a vegetable? That depends on whom you ask and where you live. In the U.S., rhubarb has been ordained a fruit in New York. Tart like a lemon, it finds its way into pies, crisps, sauces, soups and drinks. On 1 June Lanesboro celebrates its annual Rhubarb Festival at Sylvan Park. The day’s events include a tasting, a stalk throw and toss, a growers’ competition and entertainment by–no surprises here–the Rhubarb Sisters.
