I agree, I glut myself silly on the fresh stuff all summer, but it's nice to have some set aside for the long winters here.

I don't think southerners understand the "long winter" concept

And, you can only eat just so much fresh stuff... we're just about done with the asparagus binge now; when we have lots of tomatoes, we're also loaded with beans, cukes, zucchini, beets, carrots, broccoli -- I'd have to cut WAY back on how much of each that I grow if we were only going to eat it fresh!
