Post #212,417 by ChrisR 6/24/05 11:06:33 AM Reply	Wife just picked up milk from a small coop We did veggies and fruits for a while, but have subsequently lapsed. As for strawberries, am I the only one that finds the smaller strawberries to be better? Seems like the grocery stores are carrying bigger and bigger strawberries each year, in trying to match the size of a tomatoe. Such mutants must attract buyers more, but I find the smaller ones are sweeter and juicier.

Put "stuff" (a football, a dollhouse, a car, an old telephone pole)on that ground. Take photos every week.
