Yay, another fine podcast! My habit is to now begin listening each Saturday morning while getting ready for mkt and if I run out of time I get to look forward to finishing it when I get home in the afternoon. What a nice Saturday treat for me. Thanks, Dave and Trish.

And yes, it was chock full of nice info and wonderful front porch conversation, udderly facinating. (Sorry, Dave, I couldn't resist...and got a nice laugh out of the memory!)

As a quick aside, I'm one of those pineapple growers and have gotten one in 2 years BUT have to agree, w/out the greenhouse it would be next to impossible for folks to grow their own in most zones. I've even tried growing a new onion from the root start (actually they were leeks) and was disappointed in the results. And lastly, I've even saved the tops off carrots to regrow them into a "new" carrot. The result was an extremely tasteless carrot with a core so hard, tough and stringy it would no doubt yank the teeth out of a corn-fed mule, and trust me, that would take some doing!

Again, great info, great podcast.
Best to all.
