Demanding time

The gardens and yard certainly demand it.  Unfortunately, the produce world is falling down in the demand department.  As I can attest, the lettuce crops are coming in at an accelerating pace and consumers seem to be able to find other things to do with their money.  From early pricing in the high teens FOB, the iceberg market is rapidly falling toward single digits.  Broccoli remains in high demand, but that will probably fall as more local producers start production.  One grower claims he will have celery starting this weekend.  Time to put the selling shoes on.
