Local Victory Gardens: The labor question

http://blog.localvictorygardens.com/2009/09/labor-question.html

Conquering world hunger one block at a time. Tuesday, September 29, 2009. Doug and I were talking last week about the abundant bounty of produce in the garden, and regretting that some of it was going to waste because no one was picking it. The garden has come up against an age-old problem: How do you get enough labor to harvest? Ripened at the same time, from asparagus to winter squash! How can we make use of it all?

Local Victory Gardens: Loving Winter Squash

http://blog.localvictorygardens.com/2009/10/loving-winter-squash.html

Conquering world hunger one block at a time. Tuesday, October 27, 2009. My family has discovered the greatness of winter squash. Even my three-year-old likes it! The first is Acorn Squash with Apple Stuffing. Since I don't have the notes for the source, it is probably from either the Historical Society's book or a booklet from Whole Foods Market. My great discovery this year is that I can make it in the microwave, which means I don't have to think about it an hour or more ahead of time:. 1/ 2 cup raisins.

But, I am enjoying the great flavors ...
