Yak, you must be clairvoyant. Upcoming projects that are in the planning stages are a regular podcast, and a how-to, nicely done set of videos - I am working with my daughter Sara's friend - so yes, the project list is long - probably events for book 2 (already lots of stuff next year for book 1 - Seattle, Chicago, Kansas, Virginia to start), proposal for book 3, reengaging on the dwarf project, podcast and videos.

Did I say I retired? Nope - working more now than I did in the corporate world and enjoying it much more. Who knows - I may even be able to eke out a living on this!

Yep - waiting to hear, but if all goes well, I will be doing two workshops there. Our daughter lives there, so we will spend a bit of time - and I may look for other local opportunities to present.

Please keep me informed of any events near me where you will be giving workshops. Asheville comes to mind. My wife and I attended the Mother Earth news fair the past 2 years and they had some good ones. Good luck with everything!

I was speaking at Asheville earlier this year - will be at the one in Seven Springs in a few months - will surely be back at Asheville next year.

Best way to see my activities is here - www.nctomatoman.com - scroll down to my events list - which changes often and I keep updated daily. The event in Monticello is just wonderful - no better place to feel the joy of gardening!

Hmm, I didn't think Sunrise tasted anything like Sungold. It doesn't have hardly any of the same Sungold sweetness!

Well like they say so many variables. I'm growing both this year and although Sungold is a bit sweeter it isn't by much in my garden.

It's not loading for me. Did Tomatovillians crash the site?

Dinner tonight was Anna's Spaghetti. I have no Sungold this year - but I have sunsuger which imo, does not even compare! Anyways I made it with sunsugar and ambrosia gold. It was delicious! Thank you Craig!

Luigi, we had it tonight as well, as leftovers - with some zucchini, and sliced Cherokee Green and Dwarf Mr. Snow. I love this time of year!
