When I moved from the big city I didn't know about a lot of things - no need to admit them all in one swoop, but I will confess one of them is farming.

So, shotly after arriving in the Comox Valley, I, for a reason I can't recollect, found myself at Eatmore Sprouts - it was like arriving on another planet and began the opening of my eyes to connecting with where my food came from.

I thought it was so cool that sprouts grew near me, it was like I had never thought about it.

Christine, my office manager, often buys them and pops them in the fridge. Which I appreciate when I make my otherwise dull, and not very healthy cheese sandwich.

They are kind of fun to play with as well.
