Grain growers on Prince Edward Island have seen better years, but some haven’t seen very many worse than this one.

At Meadowbrook Farms in Winsloe, David Mol was using the sunshine on Thursday to cut a field of Helena milling wheat ahead of another torrential weather system forecast for Saturday and Sunday. 

“Unfortunately because of the amount of rain we’ve had, there’s been a number of crops which should have been cut. They’ve passed their maturity and they haven’t been cut yet,” Mol said. “So the quality on some of the peas and barley is certainly not what it should have been.”
