Why would you want to, when you can grow produce that's vastly superior.
Most things are better frozen, and my Kentucky Wonder beans are _way_
better than store bought. And don't forget all the old varieties that were

puck.
I confess; I buy most of my food. But the way to impress the ladies is to
serve a home-cooked meal, right out of the garden!
