Does anyone have any good books/articles to suggest on the growing
of flax and turning it into linen, food oil, and/or paint oil?
Also, I can occasionally find flax seed for sale to grow for more
seed to eat in bread/muffins or to turn into oil, but haven't come
across any that has been bred for good fiber characteristics.
Anyone know of a source for the fiber seeds, or a variety that
is good for both?
