Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["TradingPostPaul" <tradingpost@riseup.net>]

Except all too often they go unweeded, unwatered, and unpicked. And of
course you have no idea what someone has sprayed everybody else's crop
with. And being such a transitory thing there's no incentive for
participants to build healthy soil for the next year. It's not their own
soil so why bother. They remind me of some cooking shows and "greenovate"
your home shows. A bust.
