I forgot to bring a harvest bag and had to cram everything into the top of the tool bag. I’m currently harvesting lots of dandelion greens for boiling and herbs for drying but the weather has been so mild even the summer crops like tomatoes, peppers, and ‘Mexican sour gherkins’ are continuing to produce.

Very good, I garden in a suburban apartment complex in Port Orchard, Washington State USA. Your book will prove useful to me. It was very inspiring. I'm going to plant a kitty garden and make a chicken wire cloche also! The Mexican Sour Gherkin is darlin!
