RE: gardening boom
Hah! Well undoubtedly the crude costs more but we just had to set up
tiered water rates for the neighborhood this year. Use over a certain
amount and your rates go up accordingly. I didn't know when I planned
the veggie garden we'd be paying over $4 a gallon for gas so maybe it's
just as well we're trying to save on water too, we'll need the money.
I gotta figure out how to sell some eggs too, our chickens are producing
18 a day. All my customers retired and I haven't managed to convince
anyone else they need farm-fresh eggs. Aside from the new gardeners
asking for advice, people seem to think food that doesn't come from a
store is teeming with flesh-eating bacteria or something. It's
discouraging.
