OT: Reason I ask is because I have a garden in Ontario, grow a ton of stuff, but been spending summers in Newfoundland , and have a garden there also , I don't get much from either, but my neighbours do ok. Ontario matures while I'm gone and just about the time everything is ready in NL I'm back... a lot of fun to grow stuff though. So I won't starve , just have to be there when everything is in bloom...LOL Lots of fishing in NL this summer also. cod , flounder, herring and mackeral, first time I caught flounder in 40 years.

Hours spent in the garden are not deducted from your lifetime, is my theory ... as for being currency, sunday i traded produce for honey, last week for welding, very good deal on the latter, just happened to be what i had in the truck ... my daughter and i are cooking up a scheme to have a little stand at a farmers market, she's only seven but very good with people, should enjoy it, we'll see how the attention span holds out ... it's not hard to sell stuff as long as you're feeling no pressure, same as in machinery or logs or stocks imho Had a new porcelain garlic this year, name of Northern Quebec, it did well, always reminds me of you and others we know there ... don't know anything about the variety but the bulb covers sure stood up to the wet spring better than comparables [edit] - agreed on guns, i've got em, know how to use em and will if i have to, but far from eager and don't expect that scenario here at all [edit2] - exception to above in the case of garden-fed venison, of course ... when my wife first came here, first morning we had several deer right in front of the window, she was so impressed, said 'O, muy sabroso el venado' ... 'very tasty' ... and they are adamapples.blogspot.com - best apple on this claim, very firm not oversweet, tree grows slow but produces more than you'd think it could hold
