People think of veg as something with a timer that counts down; you buy it as fresh as it’s going to be and then you have to eat it before it turns into slime.

In a garden the timer is running the other way; every day the food gets fresher and better and bigger, and if you’re planting at the same rate you’re eating the garden becomes a daily food pipeline.

Be aware; gardening is a gateway to canning, because that’s how I keep eating my garden in December
