In eating something grown from your own land with your own hands . The
strawberry shortcake tonight was delicious , and the salads lately have been
phenomenal . This is the best year ever for lettuce , and this year's was
all grown from seed I saved from last year . The tomatoes ... I can hardly
wait to pick a nice sun ripened tomato and bite into it straight from the
plant . And they're blooming like crazy . Life out in the woods is indeed
sweet .

Hi Terry,

1+ Have trouble putting the stuff down.

I have a theory as to why folks don't eat their vegi's. It is
because they taste like crap. I love home grown and local grown.

I have to agree with the taste theory . Commercial growers don't care
about taste , they care about shipping well and profit . I care about flavor
, but even more important I care about the fact that I don't use chemicals
to grow my fruits and veggies . The only things I use are some 13/13/13
fertilizer (sparingly) , a BT product and a fungicide when necessary .

Pick green and lay flat.

I wonder what heirloom spinach tastes like. It definitely
does not lay flat!

First local grown organic carrots I tried, I almost flipped.
Carrots actually taste good! I mean REALLY GOOD!
