Getting ready for 2011.
The harvest season is only just behind us, but already looking ahead at the next. Saving seeds gives you the advantage of having enough seeds for the next few years, but it is also fun to grow new varieties. Also markets change and customer demands change. Enough to keep busy looking around for new things to grow.
In the old days when everyone saved their own seed, these open pollinated varieties mixed a lot. This gave us the great variety of food we have now and also made plants more disease resistant. Now markets demand all similar shaped and sized food, so it eases the use and packaging. It sure can be handy and it works in a large industrial scale, but personally i find more satisfaction in these odd shaped veggies and other botanical surprises you may find in your garden.
