Eric Toesnmeier , author ofPerennial Vegetables : From globe artichoke to Zuiki Taro , A Gardener ’s Guide to Over 100 Delicious , Easy - to - produce Edibles , knows the economic value of a good germ source . So , to encourage interesting natural selection for your food for thought garden this summertime , we think we ’d mail this helpful seed source appendix fromPerennial Vegetables .
From the playscript :
Perennial vegetable can be voiceless to find . The nurseries and seed company that stock them are unremarkably small and run by highly consecrate enthusiast . In some cases only one or two society in North America offer the coinage you are looking for . Be disposed for some kinky or technical catalogs — but unity that are chock - full of fascinating plants . Someday perennial vegetables may be useable through mainstream company . While this will help many more the great unwashed grow them , please do n’t block the initiate companies and organizations that first made these crop available to you .
During the class of writing this book two of the finest repeated veggie nurseries — Oregon Exotics and Future Foods — went out of business . This should be a lesson to us all not to hold back on say something rare , because it may be very hard to find it again if a company move under .
