I was wondering of all you growers. With so many areas having floods and droughts and tornadoes and with the high prices of gas and economic problems going on aroudn the country, are you planting more, les sor abotu the same as last year.

if your cuttign back on things what are some of yoru suggestions for thinsg that may not go as good as other things.

if your increasing certain items, what ya think gonan be the big sellers this year?

With water a big issue, I have cut back on the perennials and most of the annuals that the big box stores carry and have added more veggies. Thinkign maybe with grocery stores beign so high folks might buy more market products as we can usually sell a few cent cheaper than grocery stores and at least we fresh.

What ya think, think Market growers gonna do ok this year or are we gonan have problems too. Will folsk travel to the markets with gas as high as it is?
