Hey Kathryn!

Thanks for the note-taking-resolution peer support. I'll surely think about you when going my notes. And I'd love to share my notes with you all, but ... I doubt you will be able to read them in French! :D

Richard, interesting that you found tomatoes and lettuce to be two of
your “cash cows”. I dearly adore tomatoes but had almost relegated them
to the category of “expensive” on the assumption that they were
relatively time-intensive. I seem to spend more time coddling them than
just about anything else.

I think you can coax tomatoes into yielding really profitably only if you grow them in high tunnel, and then, only if you use fairly performant cultivars. But take it with a grain of salt, I'm just a beginner.
