I am doing double the size of garden this year.
And will be drying and freezing everything I can.
We're still eating green beans from last summer's garden, and we have a few small squashes left, lots of chilies (Anaheim and Poblano), and various sweet bell peppers too.
Potatoes are also easy to grow, fun, and delicious. We planted some kennebec, katahdin, some Yukon gold, and some red. Yummmmers! all very good! We should have planted more, because they will last all winter if stored properly.
We have almost 12 acres, but much of it is wooded. Even so, there is pleanty of room for gardening. We have two areas that we plant. The upper garden is where we plant our potatoes, squash and things that need more space. In the lower garden we do our beans, peas, tomatoes and eggplants (have you tried the white eggplant? So creamy and delicious!).
Public and neither is the fact that we truly have so many unhealthy & over weight Americans. If you sit down and consume thousands of calories at one meal how exactly is that healthy?
There isn't much left of the Tuna fleet in California. When we lived in San Diego, at one time there was a good sized tuna fleet, and I had a friend on one of the boats. But the environmentalists drove them all south to Mexico. There is hardly anything left of tuna fishing in San Diego. There may still be some packing plants (Starkist, I think, is still San Diego based).

I hear the salmon and seafood industry is suffering this year too. What next I wonder.
