    Greg is very annoying in lots of ways. You’ll pick up on that pretty quick. Good guests. Particularly the seed chats with the homie from Idaho.

    Thanks so much for tips on dry farming. Will you be addressing fog collection for water? We sometimes have “pea soup” mornings and I am wondering how useful this method is.
