Dude, yah! If we paid extra for a special berry like we do a special ale! but I think more people are coming to that. As "commercially" grown vegetables and fruit lose more and more flavor, people taste a sun-ripened tomato or a peach left on the tree till just the right moment... and they know the difference. And will pay for it. And it's not that I want to be paid a lot. Or want the price high. But there's just something wierd to me. This almost plastic food that is passed off on people. Kids at 15 that don't know what a real tomato tastes like. And it's about production, and efficiency and all that. But it's bland. Like the lastest "Mummy" movie. No wonder kids go so much for sugar. It's one of the only things that doesn't taste like cardboard. It's almost June, but still the first 'maters are a ways away. Do you know what that's like? To wait for the first taste? And to taste the last one as the frost takes them, knowing you'll have to wait till next year

Jon Anderson.... country boy... singing about home-grown tomatoes. They could start a revolution. :0
