Grow your own is the tastiest AND MOST SATISFYING FOOD THERE IS.

To do it all year round requires the learning of canning procedures - which is fun to do as well.

The problem, as I understand it, is that farmers have found an off label usage for Roundup which involves using Roundup just before harvesting the crop. From the testing of Roundup it was determined that a crop using Roundup shouldn't be harvested within so many days of Roundup treatment yet some farmers either don't know about this rule or are violating this rule in order to make more money. It has something to do with the water content of the crop. Roundup can be used to get the moisture content right.
