Excellent!! That's just what I was looking for.

Did you see that recently? I haven't seen Eliott on TV lately. Now
there's a guy with a ton of interesting ideas! A couple of years ago we
went on a garden tour of the Blue Hill area and their place was on it.
Very inspiring!



I have his book 'The Four Season Harvest' - great stuff.

We're building a hoophouse later this summer, and I have a
personal goal (here in chilly northern PA), to eat something
fresh from my garden every day of the year.
