At the Home and Yard show this year three or four farmers came forward to introduce themselves at the Home and Yard show as being people trained by Dr Carey Reams.  Things like this make me think about how small our world is at times.

They were delighted to see that we were really promoting the use of a refractometer as a means of evaluating the quality of plants grown. We made up a brochure with a brix chart to hand out to people. A lot of people had refractometers they used in their work, but everyone was keenly interested in learning that an increase in the Brix of plant juices meant an increase in plant quality.

A lot of people, as soon as they learned about the relationship between high mineral content and high brix levels, took the leap towards getting a refractometer so they could measure the quality of the food they were getting out of local stores.

Grow healthy, eat healthy, and be healthier.

Happy Gardening!
