I don't think we're going to get ten cents for them this year. The price tanked in September but has gone back up a bit this month. If you look at the history we're way below the five year trend.

It's really a shame after all of the time, care, watching them sprout and grow. They were beautifully luscious and now they are hitting their Autumn peak and starting to get ready for harvest.

I think plants have souls just like animals do. It really is a shame that we don't appreciate them more.
