My favorite is burpie big boy. But last year, some of them died.Or didn't do well because I had planted them in the same spot.That I planted tomatoes the year before so I learned my lesson. Last year I did have a good luck with german johnsons and cherokee purples and also celebrity grew well for me

Potato Leaf Yellow, Sun Gold, Egg Yolk, Earl, Lucky Cross, Lillian's Yellow Heirloom, Polish

So - 1 purple, 2 brown, 2 green, 2 orange, 2 yellow, 2 pink, 1 yellow/red

all are flavor favorites. Only Sun Gold is a hybrid (and is irreplaceable!).

Captain Lucky, which I tried a few years ago for the first time, is just unreal - so delicious. It is green and purple mottled outside, mostly green with some bright red inside. I've had Cherokee Purple since I first received and named it in 1990.

going on! How is the book coming? Will want to alert my library to get a copy. Your first is always out in circulation.

I didn't expect to get so many speaking requests this year - but Zooms let me reach distant places!

Hope all is great with you!

very busy! Will look forward to your book, whenever it is ready.

Doing okay here, looking forward to our little community garden, which will be weeks yet. Our growing season is late, and short. It snowed today. Ah, well, a friend is nurturing seedlings in her greenhouse for me!

I wish we could grow at least tomatoes, but I'd also love to add in peppers, eggplant and zucchini. Our soil is rocky clay, and even with doing raised beds and filling them with good soil, we weren't very successful due to the amount of sun we DON'T get in our yard. We did really well with butter lettuce though.

Hubby has done hydroponics in the basement and been successful with spinach, a few cherry tomatoes, and basil.

Best of luck on your beautiful garden! And have fun with the hiking and kayaking. I've never tried kayaking. I figure I'd tip it over or get stuck in it (I have knee issues as well )

Always hoping someone is not filming my wife exiting our kayaks!
