Sometimes it was good for the body and the mind to get away form the city, and when he needed to, there was only one place that was suitable to do it.

It also helped that there was a lovely little friend who he could pet sitting in his lap as Davd made another note on the paper in front of him.

"So heirloom tomatoes hard yes. What about yellow tomatoes? They're really great for a golden salsa."

"We'll have to consider whether we want to segregate the strains or risk them cross-breeding. I'd like to try to save at least some for future plantings," Bart said, taking his own notes and updating the chart on where he'd want to start other beds if they did want to try to distance cultivars.

It was definitely relaxing to just sit around and plan for things that had nothing to do with life or death.

"That reminds me, if you want to gather, the garlic and some of the other herbs definitely went a little wild so you can definitely restock your window planters."

"Starting some other areas also gives us a chance to plant things that can't be in close proximity like zucchini and cucumber or other kinds of allium and onion. Plant genetics are so weird and complex compared to animals."

He had all kinds of printouts and seed catalogs to try to figure out what to do and when to plant. The unseasonable snows had delayed some things, but he had some ideas.

"If we're going for color, there's probably plenty of things to look into. I've already got seed for purple and golden cauliflower and the like." It might be interesting to plan most of the year for that instead of just having the typical plants.

"The soil's not acidic enough to really do the best peppers, but we can add a few varieties in along with different legumes. They look amazing when they flower." Definitely nothing wrong with having your kitchen garden also have aesthetic appeal, right?
