The 2020 Vegetable of the Year: "the wise vegetable of the pandemic"
by Gary Boelhower when the soil is still cold to the touch and nights still shiver with frost when the sun is just beginning to whisper its promises of summer green gardens. This is the seed that grows a family and builds a home just the right size to keep the whole clan safe and sound. This is the wise vegetable of the pandemic teaching about safety and spread, distance and togetherness. This is the vegetable that creates worlds sweet planets, galaxies of heavenly orbs with names like Tom Thumb and Half Pint Green Arrow and Tall Telephone Mr. Big and Little Marvel.
