"If people let government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as are the souls of those who live under tyranny."

csa

i talked to kevin and charuth this am at shadowbrook and always great to see those two and have a bitch session about farming. this am we spent mostly on squash bugs squash virus and tomato ills. very bizarre and disturbing results on the squash this year. summer and winter varieties both wiped out. butternut squash, the "indestructible" vine perished along with every other kind. im willing to look at every possibility except that i may not know what im doing. earth changes? yes, defintitely! lou's idea to pickle surplus greenbeans is a winner. many easy and delicious recipes for those on interweb. cayenne hot sauce - throw on everything. only hot for a few seconds.
