To extend the idea of "Gardening gardeners" - an expression that's been around on permies since at least 2016 - I think we also need to pay attention to cooking up a big batch of cooks.
Am I right to suspect that a lot of home-grown food gets wasted composted because it all comes ripe at once? Or like on my farm where I really can't store summer apples, so they get fed to the geese, chickens and ducks - better than compost as they preprocess the apples and spread the goodness all over our field.
The weather is changing rapidly now that it's early October, but I've got a lot of green tomatoes and not sure I've got the time or energy to make green tomato mincemeat. Having a team to process food together would make it much easier and much more social!
