Welcome back everyone to the Epic Gardening podcast. Hope you're doing well. Hope your

garden is doing well. Meg Caden is back on the show for her final episode, at least for

now. So you know, Meg, we've talked a lot about your garden, your approach, especially

when it comes to fall and extending the season, succession planting, all that kind of stuff.

I figure maybe why don't we just talk about some of your absolute favorite crops and maybe

even get into the actual varieties you like? Yeah, that sounds awesome. Favorite varieties.

I mean, we could be here all day. This could be a whole week probably. Oh, yeah, easily.

So I'll go back to cabbages. Cabbage is probably the easiest one for me to just, you know,

varieties that are both open pollinated. And one of them is called Cheafed in Savoy.

this cabbage out, but it's supposed to produce just as well. So I am like super curious,

and I will be totally into it if it produces just as well. I'd be more than happy to grow an

open pollinated cabbage. So I'm really excited to try that. So that point is continue to try new

varieties. I'm continuing to do it. Marty, cauliflower is a cauliflower that I've had a lot of good
