Yesterday, the fire marshall came to investigate for a burn permit. When she
left, she had seed for Suddath, Blk Krim, Cherokee Green, Kosovo and
Black Cherry plus 5 labelled 4" black plastic growing containers, a printed
instruction page (which includes the necessity of singing to the heirlooms
and flicking blossoms while you sing). I have a feeling, based on her
excitement, that more firemen will be stopping by. LOL, if my house ever
catches on fire, the fire dept. will protect my hoophouses first!!

Hey, wait a minute!!!!

She's talking about me. I'm one of those "bug people".

How did she know?

Will I have to leave home?

Will I have to get a new identity?

WAIT A MINUTE, this is a TOMATO forum.

But how did she know I am a beekeeper? I'll never know. Must have something to do with the tomatoes. That must be it. I'm heading out to the garden to pick a handful of cherry tomatoes for my salad. The bees are already tucked in for the night.

Ha! See, you are the smart one ...get the bees to do the work, and you get to reap the rewards! I am fortunate that my friend on the neighboring lake started raising bees...they love to come to my yard every single day and have a big party in the garden. And they are MOST welcome
