Harvests

A search for "harvest" on previous posts, for a friend who's doing an article about freezing from your garden, brought up SO many rewarding posts.  My first search had been tomatoes, and then harvest.

Fascinating, and rewarding, since I've been growing, commenting, and thinking about these sorts of things for so long now.

I'm heading over to hear Elliot Coleman, one of my gardening heroes, tomorrow at the Mother Earth Fair here in Asheville. 

He's talking about extending the seasons, which he's written about extensively.  I may not learn anything new, but I'd love to say "thank you" for his truly visionary perspective.

I'm going to try to pick up some of the other talks, too.
