Greetin's Greg,
                        Y'all can be showin me tha secrets a chewin 
wheat when I shows up wit ma bag o spring wheat.
    
                     The burdock is another issue. I have specifically 
chosen japanese burdock as a favour to some japanese immigrants. Perhaps 
I should harvest some free-range burdock and have a blind taste test.
 
                    As you may have guessed, I like to try and grow 
something experimental each year. The only thing stopping me from 
planting a couple of hazelnut bushes is that they take eight years to 
bear nuts, okay and they can get up to twelve feet tall, and then 
there's the fact that you have to have two different cultivars to get 
them to pollinate, and the other.... well, it would be nice to have a 
small fruit tree or a nut orchard.
