Once the tomatoes get delicious and megacheap at Jean Talon market I want to buy them by the crateful – and my freezer will only hold so many tubs of sauce.

We moved to the country and are going all out with a huge garden, and deck container gardenning. We are out a little north of Kingston, Ontario. Do you have any tips on starting asparagus from seed, we have never done it before. Also, any herbs or veggies that can grow indoors year round. And hmmm, a workshop out in Kingston, Ontario, only 3 hours away, I would come for sure!!! I am new on here and love your website, and will be purchasing a book very soon.

Too tricky to organize a venue myself though since I am coming from Canada and can't bring anything with plants, soil, seeds over the border. So in those cases I must work with a garden store, etc that can offer up the needed supplies. P.S. I am ALWAYS open to San Francisco -- love that city!

Asparagus are coming on fast this year! I had my first taste last week. I've already been pickling a few samples of other spring foods, including ramps which you can see in the above photo. I will bring tasting samples to the class and whatever ingredients I can get in season by the class date. I figure conducting the class on a Friday gives everyone a chance to get to a market on Saturday to try at home. Matt: Nice to hear! Asparagus are coming on fast this year!
