14. Yes, the virus did

get a lot more people to garden. In my area, for example, literally all of the stores ran out of peas for planting by mid-May. I tend to save seeds, but was surprised that the stores in every local town had run out of peas. But that was a good thing.

I'm also increasing my leeks this year. Decades ago, there was a place up on the mountain behind me where there were lots of them. A few people would harvest some of them, and leave plenty for others. It wasn't on my property, but my neighbor is cool with my having full access to the 12 acres he only uses for fire wood and hunting. Unfortunately, a land-owner on the other side of the mountain ignored property lines, and -- without saying a word to either of us -- bulldozed areas of my neighbor's and my properties. Ah, "progress!"
