Meissa and Dan. California Wine Country today features Melissa Galliani, GM of Wine Country Radio, with Steve Jaxon and Dan Berger. Melissa is a frequent guest on the show, and was with us most recently on this episode with winemaker Dennis McCarter. Dan Berger's first wine today is a 2023 that comes from Bibiana Ravé called Shared Notes. It is 75% Sauvignon Blanc and 25% Semillon, aged on the lees for a long time. That is what gives it a silky texture. It sells for $80 and it is hard to find because they don't make very much of it. Next is a Vermentino. Where the last wine is subtle, this one is “in your face.” Dan Berger made this Vermentino himself. This is the 2023 bottling. The grower in Carneros is Las Brisas Vineyard. It is on a rise that overlooks the bay. There aromas of peaches and a little bit of pineapple. It is 100% natural and sells for $28 on Dan's Bahl Fratty website. "...almost effervescent on the tongue," as Melissa observes. This is Dan's second year of making wine and he has moved his operation to a new location. The Vermentino was made at Ektimo Winery. Visit Chigazola Merchants online to shop their unique selection of fine Italian wines. Gruner Veltliner The next wine is a Gruner Veltliner from Austria. It's the most popular white wine in Austria and goes perfectly with Austrian style cuisine. Melissa makes a comparison between Austrian Wiener Schnitzel and Texas chicken fried steak and Steve waxes nostalgic for some. It's only slightly sweet but is delicious. "Wow! That is a smooth sucker!" exclaims the host. Next they are tasting a 2022 Governor's Bay Sauvignon Blanc. It has typical New Zealand gooseberry and passion fruit flavors. Gooseberries are sweet and tart. There is also the under-ripe grapefruit flavor always there. The next wine is a 2023 Diatom Chardonnay that has gotten rave reviews. It is all from Santa Barbara County, in a place where the soil is made of diatomaceous earth. In fact, DE filters are Diatomaceous Earth. The Diatom Chardonnay is produced by Brewer Clifton, a prominent Santa Barbara brand. It has more peach and pineapple components. There is no secondary fermentation and it is "quite soft." They didn't chill it but that would work well for it. There is a DOC Pinot Grigio delle Venezie, Villa Borghetti from Italy, that is made with Pink Pinot Grigio grapes. It retails for $5.99 at Trader Joe's. Pinot Grigio grapes will turn pink if you let them stay on the vine for an extra week or two or three. Dan has a Pinot Noir, a 2019 Scherrer Green Valley Pinot Noir, from the Halberg Vineyard. Dan calls it "outrageously good." "Fantastic," says Steve. Melissa likes the spicy character that comes from Green Valley fruit.
On June 27th, 2020, Fauna Frey, a 45-year-old woman grieving the recent loss of her brother, left her family home in Dexter, Oregon with plans to visit some of his loved ones in the Grants Pass area. Two days later, on June 29th, Fauna was seen buying groceries in Grants Pass, but after that she vanished. Months later, her Jeep was discovered abandoned on a remote road over an hour from the grocery store, yet Fauna was nowhere to be found. It's been over four years since Fauna disappeared, and her family is still desperate for answers. Fauna Frey was last seen at 3:38 p.m. on June 29th, 2020, at Gooseberries, an organic food store in Grants Pass, Oregon. Her car was found months later on a spur road off BLM road 30 481 in the Mount Reuben Road area. Fauna is described as being 5'6" and weighing between 135 and 150 pounds. She has blonde hair and blue eyes, and she was last seen wearing a pink or purple zip up, lightweight jacket, cotton Capri black leggings, a light or white colored shirt, light colored sneakers and white champion ankle socks. If you have any information about Fauna's disappearance, please call the Josephine County Sheriff's Office at (541) 474-5123. A reward is available.

Blackcurrants pruning Oh… good old Ribes nigrum! It's one of our favourite fruits – Juuls makes pretty mean jam out of those dark berries. You can eat them raw off the plant, but honestly… jam is the way to go as far as I'm concerned. They hail from the temperate areas of Central and Northern Europe and Asia – yep, they can deal with frosts. Blackcurrants are usually grown as multi-stemmed plants, with an open structure of 6–10 upright stems growing from the base. Established bushes (aged four years or older) are best pruned every winter to keep them fruiting strongly. This is a simple process – cut out up to a third of the oldest stems down at the base, create some space in the middle. The younger stems will then rise up to produce fruit for the next few years. Red Currants pruning is slightly different from Blackcurrants. From late winter to early spring – prune all forms of red and white currants annually while the plants are still dormant, before any signs of growth appear. Red and white currants will fruit at the base of shoots, these are known as 'laterals', that grow out from the main branches, especially the younger branches! Young = new, narrower and lighter-coloured stems; old = thicker and darker stems Prune in winter to leave between eight and ten healthy, strong main branches each year. On one-year-old bushes, prune back new shoots by half. Leave the branch with an outward-facing bud at the top. Some folk grow them as “cordons”: a bit like climbers, up a wire structure in the form of one or two main branches. The side-shoots that come off those main stems will carry the red currents. In mid-summer – prune cordons and fans to restrict growth and maintain their shape. Gooseberries pruning Just as a warning: they are prickly rascals – wear good gloves! First of all: get rid of dead branches – cut them off as low as you can. Cut out the really old branches (especially more than 5 years old) and open the inside up a bit (not too much, mind you). But if you haven't pruned your gooseberries for a long time, they may need a bit more surgery to open that bush up again. Old branches are thick and dark in colour. Taking these old sturdy, dark branches out makes the plant grow new juvenile growth that will do the job for the next few years. The idea is to replace the older stuff with newer (much more productive) growth. The younger branches (lighter in colour and thinner) can be cut back a bit (from the top) to get the plant to set up new spurs, which will produce new fruit. The whole idea is to create a nice series of fruiting areas in the inside of the plant; not too high but certainly accessible when you want to harvest the berries. Late winter is a good time to fertilise the berries with some general fertiliser, followed by a hand-full of Sulphate of Potash to remind the plants that it's time to think of flowers and setting fruit! My good mate Mike (Scottish, a builder and handy guy to have as a friend) hadn't done any of his pruning for quite a few years and asked me to help him out restoring the Blackcurrants and Gooseberries. He had made a pretty “cage” in his garden to stop the birds vandalizing the berries, and it took us about two hours to get the job done. This is what it looked like, before and after: Dense Blackcurrants before and after pruning. Gooseberries lethal and dense, versus Gooseberries taken apart by Mike; lots of air and space. Sometimes it pays to be ruthless! LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What does the 6th June have in common this year? It is both D-Day and national fish and chip day. So we are spreading two themes in one here, which have a bit of an odd link. We are not just talking f&c, but we are looking at how it links in to WW2, as well as seeing how the very unlikely gooseberries and mulberries fit into the picture. Confused? Yeah, we thought you might be. We're not, however, talking fruit, but talking mulberry harbours, which helped hugely in the aftermath of D-Day to disembark troop and kit into Normandy, and how the London docks played a very big part in that impressive feat of engineering.

The Drunken Odyssey with John King: A Podcast About the Writing Life
On today's show, Rachael and I discuss George Saunders's discussion of seven short stories by Russian authors. Since Saunders's book is the result of teaching these stories in MFA craft courses over multiple decades, this book and today's discussion simulates an important part of the MFA experience, for those who wonder what that might be like. The stories: Anton Chekhov's "In the Cart" (1897) Ivan Turgenev's "The Singers" (1852) Anton Chekhov's "The Darling" (1899) Leo Tolstoy's "Master and Man" (1895) Nikolai Gogol's "The Nose" (1836) Anton Chekhov's "Gooseberries" (1898) Leo Tolstoy's "Alyosha The Pot" (1905)
In another episode of "shortcut to the classics," P&C plus special guest Longinus review a few short stories by Anton Checkov (starting at 3:25). After a quick review of his life, they review and discuss five short stories. The Black Monk is a story about Andrei Kovrin, an intellectual who experiences a mental breakdown that leads to hallucinations of a black monk. In The House with the Mezzanine a young painter becomes enamored of two temperamentally different sisters during his stay at a country house. The Peasants explores the harsh reality of peasant life in Russia, following Nikolai Chikildeev who, as a result of sickness, has to leave his Moscow job to live with his poor family. Gooseberries is a strange story about a man who is so consumed with achieving his dream that he is indifferent to the sufferings of others. In The Lady with the Toy Dog recounts a love affair by a player -- Dmitri Gurov -- who "fooled around and fell in love" with Anna Sergeyevna, a married woman he met on vacation in Yalta. The affair seems to have come to an end, but Dmitri pursues Anna to the city.

Learn how to garden like nature from writer, horticultural consultant, and educator Dr. Lee Reich. We start with an audio tour of Lee's award winning “farmden," which is more than a garden and less than a farm. Packed with plants, including Paw Paws, Hardy Kiwi, Gooseberries, Figs, and Filberts, Lee uses his land as a test site for showcasing his gardening techniques. After 40 years of tending the land, Lee not only grows healthy fruits and vegetables, but also lots of fertile soil and compost. Lee and I discuss the art and science of building soil from the ground up following his easy low impact approach. Lee explains why he believes it's important to pay attention to the top few inches of soil and let nature take care of the rest. Lee advocates gardening like nature by using a system that's good for plants and people and that emulates natural conditions. We chat about mulch, the importance of compost, and why Lee loves to repurpose what others might call waste in his quest to improve soil fertility and grow vibrant and resilient plants. Dr. Lee Reich is a writer, horticultural consultant and educator with graduate degrees in soil science and horticulture. Lee's farmden has won awards from National Gardening and Organic Gardening magazines and has been featured in many publications like the New York Times and Martha Stewart Living. HIs books include Weedless Gardening, Uncommon Fruits for Every Garden, and Growing Figs in Cold Climates. Lee was a former plant and soil researcher for the US Department of Agriculture and Cornell University and wrote a syndicated gardening column for the Associated Press for nearly 30 years.

The British Growers' Association, which represents the horticulture and fresh produce industries, is warning of a potential crisis in the sector, as input costs spiral and the price they are paid is kept stubbornly low. They've just carried out research into carrot and broccoli production and say unless farmers get paid more for their veg, they'll be forced to stop growing it. As the drought continues in parts of the UK, some farmers are keeping a close eye on their valuable irrigation systems. They're fast becoming a target for thieves - joining other farm essentials like quad bikes, diesel, GPS systems and machinery parts. This year's report by the rural insurer NFU Mutual, published this week, says the cost of rural crime is now back up to pre-pandemic levels. We join one farmer in Cambridgeshire who regularly patrols his fields. All week we've been looking at the issues facing tenant farmers. Today we meet a couple who - despite multiple applications - have had no luck finding a new tenancy. They currently rent a farm but the landlord has decided to sell. Gooseberries are often seen as a rather old-fashioned fruit, but they do make good pies! And if you want to find the best gooseberries, Egton Bridge near Whitby is the place to be this week. It's the home to the UK's oldest gooseberry show which has taken place in the first week in August for 222 years. It attracts gooseberry fans from across the UK. The presenter is Caz Graham.

We used to run and always barefoot We ate everything what we ever could - up to the mood Lilac with rare five petals Somewhere in our neighborhood Acacia with its dubious sweetness... Some peas and surely with the green pods, Green apricots and apples, Gooseberries and cherries Along with cherries we ate cherry pits... And even resin, just some bits ;) In summer rains we jumped over the puddles... In winter frosts we used to crunch some icy snow We wanted everything, that doubled Our happiness, that only used to grow... We were nursed by the Earth and protected She played with us and spoiled like a kind grandma And treated us with love from early morning Until the velvet darkest night... We washed our braids with the rainwater, The wounds were treated with plantain... How I want to go back to that life or a sort of What the happiness is - I can explain!.. Where the Earth opened Her palms to us, Filled with wonderful gifts and treasures And treated generously and lovingly With dusty, but clean fruits without measure. We didn't use to clean We didn't use to wash anything, We simply used to eat and go... Well, when was it? Long time ago When all the trees were very tall...

Chekhov's 1898 story "The Man In A Case", like many of his stories, was a comment on the social and political atmosphere prevalent in Russia at the time, and for that he was criticized often. This story was the first part of what has become known as "The Little Trilogy", along with "Gooseberries" (coming next week) and "About Love" (now in our archives ). Interestingly enough, a statue of the main character, Belikov, clad in galoshes and carrying an umbrella, stands next to the Chekhov gymnasium in Taganrog, Russia, in Chekhov's honor. Belikov was based upon a real character A.F. Dyakanov, who was the inspector for that city's gymnasium during the years Chekov wrote. He wrote the story while he lived in Paris.

Gooseberries are one of the classics of the berry garden. Actually, they would have tremendous potential as fruits: they still represent the bush berry fruits that have the largest fruits – more bite, more juice, more flavour is not possible. But the historical and far too mildew-prone varieties, the mildew itself, the thorns as well as the antiquated image still hinder this fruit species. Here in the Gardener's Radio podcast we would like to highlight the most important aspects of gooseberry production. Podcast content: • How important are gooseberries in the marketplace? • How important are gooseberries to Lubera Edibles? • Which gooseberry young plants are there? • When should which plants be potted and with which pot size? • Powdery mildew and leaf drop disease • The longest day! • How many times should the plants be cut back? • How can plants be produced so that they are still beautiful in the summer? • What about standards?
Net Carbs In Fruits For Keto Dieters https://rockthatketo.com/net-carbs-in-fruits/ (https://rockthatketo.com/net-carbs-in-fruits/) This is a list of common fruits showing their carb content. The carb content is figured as per 100 grams, or about 3 ½" ounces. Net carbs are total carbs minus fiber. Fiber is counted as carbs, but doesn’t really absorb in the body. Note: If you are ever stuck at a certain weight and you can’t lose anymore, try counting your carbs as total carbs and not net carbs. This will lower your carb count even more and can often break a weight loss stall. Fruit is pretty much not done on Keto. However, several of the berries are fine, and theoretically, small amounts of fruit could be ok. However, anything sugary, including sweet fruit, will tend to trigger your body’s insulin response. For that reason, it’s probably best to stay away from super sugary items, even if it’s within the total carb limit. That overrides the net carbs in fruits. This is a generalized guide of net carbs in fruits. It’s an approximation as each individual piece of produce will vary in carb content. Fruits In The ‘Possible’ Zone Berries are some of the few fruits that will work with keto. Blackberries - 5 grams Cranberries - 5 grams Raspberries - 5 grams Peaches - 5 grams Lemon - 5 grams This next group are int the ‘be very careful’ zone. Gooseberries - 6 grams Strawberries - 6 grams Apricot - 8 grams Grapefruit - 9 grams Orange - 10 grams Kumquats - 9 grams Pomelo - 9 grams Honeydew Melon - 9 grams Cantaloupe - 7 grams Watermelon - 8 grams Cherries - 10 grams Pineapple - 8 grams Plums - 8 grams Coconut Meat - 6 grams Fruits in the No Go Zone These don’t work at all. Kiwi - 12 grams Blueberries - 11 grams (some people say these are ok in small doses) Grapes - 12 grams Goji Berries - 18 grams Tangerines - 11 Pears - 12 grams Bananas - 20 grams Mango - 13 grams Lychee - 14 grams Apple - 12 grams And last, pretty much all dried fruit is like eating sugar straight. Raisins, Dates, Mango, anything dried only concentrates the sugar. Net carbs in fruits have a problem beyond the amount of carbs. It’s that the carbs are really in the form of sugar. So be very sparing with this entire part of the diet.

Ini adalah cerpen kedua dari The Little Trilogy nya Anton Chekov. Jika di cerpen pertama yang berkisah adalah Burkin, maka di cerpen ini gantian Ivan Ivanovitch yang berkisah. Ia berkisah tentang adiknya sendiri yang bernama Nikolay Ivanovitch. Ivan dan Nikolay adalah dua bersaudara Ivanovitch yang berasal dari kalangan menengah. Sesungguhnya, mereka berasal dari kasta terendah. Kakek mereka hanyalah seorang buruh tani. Namun, sang ayah berhasil diangkat menjadi prajurit sehingga kemudian memiliki sejumlah harta dan kedudukan. Ivan Ivanovitch lalu mengambil pendidikan tinggi dan menjadi seorang dokter bedah hewan, sementara sang adik, Nikolay sejak usia muda telah mengabdi kepada negara menjadi pegawai negeri sipil. Sekalipun ia sama sekali tak menikmati pekerjaannya yang monoton itu, Nikolay tetap bekerja keras dan menabung. Impiannya adalah menjadi seorang pria terhormat nan kaya raya. Nikolay bercita-cita menjadi seorang tuan tanah yang disegani. Di tanahnya kelak, ia berencana untuk menanam rumpun-rumpun Gooseberries. Nikolay sangat ingin naik kelas, dan demi impiannya itu, ia lalu menikahi seorang janda tua yang jelek namun kaya raya. Padahal, Nikolay sama sekali tidak memiliki perasaan terhadap wanita itu. Ia pun tidak memberi makan sang istri dengan baik. Ia hanya tertarik kepada uangnya saja yang ia ambil dan simpan di bank atas namanya. Nikolay selalu hidup hemat bahkan kikir ke level yang sangat mengkhawatirkan sehingga Ivan senantiasa menyantuninya. Setelah sang istri meninggal, Nikolay akhirnya berhasil membeli seluas tanah dan menjadi apa yang selama ini ia impikan. Akantetapi, Ivan mendapati betapa bodoh dan naif sekaligus sombongnya Nikolay, terutama kepada para pelayannya setelah ia menjadi kaya. Ia menjadi sangat gila hormat dan selalu menyebutnya dirinya sebagai kaum bangsawan seolah lupa akan asalnya yang sesungguhnya. Nikolay terlihat sangat berbahagia namun menjadi buta dan tuli akan penderitaan orang-orang kecil di sekitarnya. Ia kehilangan rasa empati dan simpatinya sama sekali. Membuat Ivan merasa sangat sedih. Perbedaan kelas dan ketidakadilan sosial adalah tema utama cerpen ini. Ia juga membahas tentang makna sesungguhnya akan kebahagiaan.
Chekov adalah penulis Rusia yang dikenal sebagai salah satu maestro cerpen modern. The Man In A Case adalah cerpen pertama dalam The Little Trilogy-nya. Disebut trilogi karena cerpen-cerpen tersebut memunculkan dua orang tokoh yang sama, Ivan Ivanovitch, seorang dokter hewan dan Burkin, seorang guru. Dua cerpen lainnya adalah Gooseberries dan About Love. Semua akan saya bacakan di podcast ini. Yaayy! The Man In A Case berkisah tentang salah satu rekan guru Burkin bernama Byelikov yang memiliki karakter unik dan aneh. Tak hanya penampilannya yang aneh, sikap dan pemikirannya pun aneh. Sekalipun Burkin terkesan memaklumi karakteristik Byelikov yang "tertutup" dan sangat pemalu, tapi ia juga mengungkapkan keluhannya terhadap sikap Byelikov yang judgmental dan paranoid. Kekhawatirannya akan banyak hal menulari rekan-rekan kerjanya di sekolah bahkan orang-orang yang tinggal di kota kecil itu. Pendapatnya yang judgmental bahkan membuat orang-orang merasa risih, sungkan juga takut. Takut dihakimi oleh Byelikov. Suatu ketika Byelikov jatuh cinta dan nyaris menikah. Seorang guru baru bernama Kovalenko pindah ke sana membawa serta adiknya yang cantik bernama Varinka. Byelikov dan Varinka terlihat sangat cocok, mereka pun saling menyukai. Namun, Byelikov tak kunjung melamar Varinka. Ternyata, ia merasa takut untuk menikah. Terlalu banyak kekhawatiran di kepalanya. Ia juga memiliki beberapa keberatan akan sifat dan karakter Varinka dan Kakaknya yang ia nilai terlalu terbuka, sedikit urakan bahkan kasar. Byelikov merasa sangat malu saat seseorang membuat karikatur dirinya dan Varinka lalu menyebarluaskannya. Ia juga sangat shock saat melihat Varinka dan kakaknya bersepeda, mendahului rombongan rekan sesama guru dan murid-muridnya yang tengah berjalan kaki. Byelikov menilai hal itu sangatlah tidak pantas sehingga ia kemudian pergi menegur Kovalenko. Tapi Kovalenko tersinggung dan marah lalu dengan kasar mendorong Byelikov hingga terjatuh menggelinding di tangga. Saat bangkit dari jatuhnya, Varinka muncul dan menertawakannya. Byelikov amat sangat merasa malu dan terpukul. Sejak itu, ia mengurung diri di kamar dan hanya berbaring saja di atas tempat tidur, tidak mau makan sehingga sakit dan akhirnya meninggal sebulan kemudian. Tragis ya? Karakter fiktif yang paranoid dan depresif ini rupanya cukup terkenal sehingga dibuatkan monumennya di samping museum Chekov di Taganrog, kota kelahiran sang penulis. Cerpen ini telah dipentaskan di atas panggung dalam bentuk teater maupun tari balet juga telah difilmkan di Rusia sana.
If you haven't yet realised, you soon will, that I am a huuuuugggggeeeeee fan of Ruskin Bond. I love the simplicity of his writing and I love how he can connect almost instantaneously with the reader at so many levels! Today's story is one that I will cherish forever - Ani and I had such a blast reading it together! I cracked lame jokes, got the pronunciation of names wrong and we both giggled without a care in the world! These are the kind of memories I wish for us all!

Today we celebrate the Frenchman who designed the very first secateurs or pruners and the Italian orphan who grew up to discover the corpse flower. We'll learn about the Dutch botanist who was trying to figure out what was going on with his tobacco plants and made a significant discovery for science. We'll hear the Autumn Garden Poem that highlights the crimson of the sumac and the woodbine "For the pageant of passing days." We Grow That Garden Library with a cookbook called Flowers in the Kitchen by Susan Belsinger. I'll talk about gathering up your empty containers and pots as well as protecting any ironwork, and then we'll travel back in time to 1875 to hear some thoughts about Autumn Work in the garden. But first, let's catch up on a few recent events. Earlier this month, on October 10th, the world celebrated World Mental Health Day. There was a lovely article featured in Thrive - an organization using gardening to change lives. "As a charity focussed on promoting the health benefits of gardening, Thrive knows how time spent in gardens and nature can bring significant mental health benefits. [They] see and hear how it helps people cope when times are tough." "We see how gardening can reduce stress and anxiety, how the process of nurturing plants can give fragile people a sense of achievement which in turn builds confidence, self-esteem, quality of life and, ultimately, hope." Most gardeners often joke that gardening is cheaper than therapy. But the truth is that gardening is therapeutic. Connecting with nature is restoratives. Monty Don, Gardeners' World presenter, said this about gardening, "However you come at it, whoever prescribes it or gets you to do it, gardening heals." Thrive shared the comments of young people they had worked within the garden. The kids were 12-16 years old with severe psychological and psychiatric disorders like bulimia and anorexia. They worked in the garden and reported: ‘Gardening takes my mind off things.’ ‘I feel happier and less anxious.’ ‘It has helped me be more sociable and to be able to distract myself when I feel bad.’ This is why, at The Daily Gardener, I make a point of giving you ideas and ways to keep connecting with nature all year long - even throughout the winter. It's why I end the show every day with: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day." So, there you go - the best reason to garden - staying physically healthy and mentally healthy. If you see or know of someone struggling, please tell them about the surprising benefits of gardening. Here's a friendly reminder to keep visiting your farmer's markets and local farmers. They still have plenty of excellent produce to buy. Think pears, apples, winter squash, pumpkin, brussel sprouts, broccoli, parsnips, beets, and sweet potatoes. And, if you feel so inclined, bring along an extra hot chocolate or coffee for the sellers, I know they always appreciate that this time of year and who knows? You might just make a new friend. Now, if you'd like to check out these curated articles for yourself, you're in luck- because I share all of it with the Listener Community in the Free Facebook Group - The Daily Gardener Community. So there’s no need to take notes or track down links - just head on over to the group - and join. Brevities #OTD Today is the birthday of Count Bertrand de Molleville, who was born on this day - 275 years ago - in 1744. During the French Revolution, Molleville escaped to England, where he developed the secateurs or the pruner. He created them to help with pruning grapevines - something he was all too familiar with back home in France. Before the secateurs, a knife or small machete was the primary tool used to prune grapes vines and fruit trees. That said, by 1840, there was actually a riot over the use of the secateurs in a small French town. When the town agricultural committee met to decide whether the secateurs should replace the pruning knife in the vineyards, over 300 farm workers showed up and marched in the streets to protest the decision. The workers felt that the humble secateurs would replace the need for so many vinedressers. Ah, technology. #OTD On this day in 1843 the New England Farmer shared a simple update to the nation: Wisconsin, it is said, will have for sale this year, 1,000,000 bushels of wheat. #OTD Today is the anniversary of the death of Odoardo Beccari, who died on this day in 1920. After growing up an orphan, Beccarri managed to get an education in his native Italy, and he eventually traveled to England to study at Kew. Beccarri was friends with Hooker and Darwin, but he also befriended James Brooke, which meant he was able to spend three years exploring Borneo. During his lifetime, Becarri traveled all over India, Malaysia, and New Zealand. But it was on a little voyage he took to central Sumatra (in Indonesia) in 1878 that Beccarri discovered the plant with which he will forever be associated: the Amorphophallus titanum - or the Titan arum- the largest flower in the world. Seven years later, in 1885, the first Titan arum specimen bloomed at Kew, and when it happened, it created a sensation. Today, the Titan arum bloom still draws thousands of visitors. People love to take a selfie in front of the giant blooming plant. The flower is commonly referred to as the corpse flower as it smells like rotting flesh. In a fascinating article, scent scientists recently identified the compounds that make up that terrible smell. The odor includes aspects of cheese sweat, rotting fish, decomposing meat, and garlic, among even worse items that I won't mention here. And, it takes the corpse flower a decade before it can bloom. The putrid smell is meant to attract beetles and other insects to move pollen between blooming plants so that it can reproduce. Incredibly, the plants only bloom for 24-36 hours before collapsing. Between that first bloom at Kew (back in 1885) and the year 2000, fewer than 50 Titan arum blooms had been recorded. But, in 2016, suddenly dozens of corpse flowers around the world bloomed within weeks of each other. Horticulturists are still attempting to discern the reason for the clustered bloom event. #OTD During this week in 1990, the Longview Newspaper shared a cautionary article about the upcoming flu season. Buried in the story was this reminder: "A hundred years ago, a Dutch botanist discovered a disease-carrying micro-organism smaller than bacteria and called it a virus, the Latin word for poison." The unnamed botanist was Martinus Beijerinck (pronounced “by-a-rink”), who was searching for the reason tobacco plants were dying. In his research, Beijerinck ground up some diseased tobacco leaves and then pressed the juices through a bacteria filter. He was utterly shocked when the filtered, bacteria-free liquid still spread the disease. After reviewing his experiment, Beijerinck concluded that a "contagious living fluid" was the culprit, and he called it a virus. Today, two of the most common viruses are the flu and the common cold. #OTD Today is the 8th anniversary of the death of the botanist Bernard Verdcourt or who died on this day in 2011. For over 60 years, Bernard Verdcourt was known as "BV" to his colleagues at Kew. Verdcourt specialized in East African flora, and he had an unrivaled knowledge of around 4,000 species. He was also an expert on snails and slugs. (Kind of a unique combination of interests). Verdcourt's passion for snails was a hobby he happily cultivated. Somehow he found time to publish work on mollusks in addition to the 1,000 articles he wrote about botany. He wrote all of his 1220 papers and books by hand. Rumor has it that the Kew typing pool felt BV had the second most terrible handwriting at Kew. BV didn't shy away from controversy. He enjoyed bringing adversaries together to watch them work through their issues. He couldn't abide fools or sports. He could be cantankerous, but he was also kind and helpful to young botanists. Unearthed Words Autumn Song Shall we not grow with the asters? - Never reluctant nor sad, Not counting the cost of being, Living to dare and be glad. Shall we not lift with the crickets A chorus of ready cheer, Braving the frost of oblivion, Quick to be happy here? The deep red cones of the sumach And the woodbine's crimson sprays Have bannered the common roadside For the pageant of passing days. These are the oracles Nature Fills with her holy breath, Giving them glory of color, Transcending the shadow of death. - Bliss Cameron, Canadian Poet Laureate Now it's time to Grow That Garden Library with today's book: Flowers in the Kitchen by Susan Belsinger. As Susan reminds us in the intro to her cookbook, "Petals or whole blossoms of many common garden flowers add color, flavor, and drama to simple recipes." Susan incorporates 50 different flowers into her recipes - from Borage and Fennel flowers to Marigolds and Pineapple Sage flowers. Each flower is introduced with a photo followed by growing hints and instructions for preparing them for the recipe that follows. This book came out in 1990. You can get used copies using the Amazon Link in today's Show Notes for under $2. This book intrigued me so much that I went back and looked at what newspapers were saying about it in 1990. When they featured Susan's book, newspapers shared some of her go-to recipes like: Golden Corn Muffin with Calendula Petals, Herbed Cucumber Dip with Borage Blossoms (the borage supposedly echos the taste of the cucumber), Berries with Sweet Woodruff, Dandelion Mushrooms, Nasturtiums Stuffed with Albacore Tuna, Nasturtiums with Guacamole, and my favorite, Marigold Rice - which I think sounds perfect for the holidays. Today's Garden Chore Todays a great day to gather up your collections in the garden; look for empty containers, pots, and garden ornaments. There are a few things I use outside to keep my extra pots and garden items looking great. First, I like to use ironwork like an old bakers rack or iron stand of some kind for stacking my clay pots. I line the inside of the pot with burlap before stacking the pots, so they don't stick together. Second, for my ironwork, all of that will get one last shot of clearcoat (ideally) before winter sets in. This year, it sounds like the cold is really coming early - just in time for Halloween. Lastly, consider bringing a few items indoors to enjoy during the winter. Some of my favorite pieces are things that weren't necessarily the star of the show outside - but they transform into something wonderfully grounding when you bring them indoors. Think of old cracked containers or items with patina. I love to pair an older, smaller container with one of the robin's nests that survived over the summer. They all come indoors and add a touch of something natural and rustic, which is quite lovely when layered in with the more refined decor of a home. Something Sweet Reviving the little botanic spark in your heart We're going to travel back in time, about 144 years ago, and read William Taylor's thoughts on Autumn Work that he shared in The Nottinghamshire Guardian on this day in 1875. He wrote: WHAT a relief to the flower gardener to bid farewell to the summer of 1875! The work has been quite double that of ordinary seasons; weeds and grass have grown as they never grew before, while the more tender plants in beds have scarcely grown at all. Now and then, we had a gleam of sunshine to cheer and encourage us to make another effort, and again and again, as soon as we began to get a little tidy came a thunderstorm or a hurricane, thwarting all our attempts at neatness. Gardeners, however, never give up for [such] trifles, and it is not till October is here that we acknowledge ourselves beaten. The trees are now putting on their autumnal tints; Elms and Tulip Trees are being arrayed in the brightest of gold, [...] Leaves of every hue are playing about in the gentle breeze as they fall to rustle beneath our feet. What a mistake to run after every leaf with a barrow and a besom as it falls! What a waste of time and a want of taste! Gather them up certainly before they begin to decay on the walks and so discolor them. But, employers, please remember that October is a month in which trimness is impossible out-of-doors, and if it were not impossible, it would still be undesirable. And there is another reason for not insisting on too much trimness in October; it is a month in which the professional gardener has two seasons at once. In one respect, his new year begins somewhere about Michaelmas, the same time as the Russian Violet commences flowering. Forcing has to be prepared for in earnest, planting pushed forward with all possible speed—evergreens first, and fruit trees immediately afterwards. Pruning has also to be finished, with the modern gardener, before Christmas, and where there is much to do must be commenced with early. Currants are already fit for the secateurs; Gooseberries will shortly be, then Plums, Morellos, and Peaches. After the first leaves are ripe, the sooner such trees are pruned, the better. The secateurs, or French pruning-shears, is a very handy little instrument; its total length is about 9 inches, and its weight half a pound. It can be gripped with the whole hand, and consequently does not tire the operator like the ordinary shears; it cuts clean as a knife, and by its aid, the pruner can do his work much faster than with a knife. No one who has used it for one season will go without it till a better instrument is invented, which will probably be some time first. Digging, trenching, potting bedding plants, planting box-edging, laying turf, storing fruit and vegetables, sheltering tender plants, and a multiplicity of other things too numerous to write of, all want doing now, and it is altogether an exceedingly busy month. Gardeners generally have [less work] during August and September. They are enabled to look round themselves at home, and often to make a little tour and pick up useful hints from others of the fraternity; they then begin about October with renewed vigor to work for another year. This year, however, I know many have found it impossible to keep up with their work, and consequently, anything like relaxation has been out of the question. [...] The work is so exciting and so intensely satisfying that it is almost impossible for an enthusiast to think of his health while he is behind with his work, and consequently, many go on till nature can no longer stand it. I would ask employers, then, if they happen to possess an excellent and enthusiastic gardener whom they value, to be careful just now and not tax him too much, for there are some hundreds at this moment which if they had another straw placed on their backs would breakdown. But enough of this. Autumn is here. Bright and breezy autumn, I give you a hearty welcome; you shut out of sight forever our dismal wintry summer; you release me from floricultural millinery, and put an end for a time to my polychromatic disappointments. I go to enjoy my vacation with a spade and a pruning-hook, for the most perfect rest is a change of occupation.—William Taylor. Thanks for listening to the daily gardener, and remember: "For a happy, healthy life, garden every day."

On this episode of HRN Happy Hour, Caity's dear friend and former classmate, Maggie Tauranac joins us in studio! Kat recaps her trip to Slow Food Nations in Denver (click here to see and hear all the coverage) and we share some other headlines from around HRN and the food world! After the break, we hear more from Maggie, who is now the Program Associate at GRACE Communications Foundation, which advocates for more sustainable alternatives to our current industrial food system. Maggie has an MA in Food Studies from New York University where she conducted an analysis on agricultural antibiotic overuse and strategies for reduction. With a particular interest in ethics in the food system, her focus is predominantly on policy/advocacy issues surrounding food justice and sustainability (with a side eye towards the meat industry). Prior to joining GRACE, Maggie worked in several capacities for NYU’s Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health Department, including as a research assistant to food policy analysts and as an adjunct professor and teaching assistant. Maggie is lovingly engrossed with her CSA, and is really into composting. In her spare time, she likes bouldering, jumping into lakes, and putting things in color order. We wrap up the episode with some trivia about one of Maggie's favorite food: the gooseberry!

Petey needs to talk about currants and gooseberries and he does. You better listen.
In the 1920s, New Yorkers grew 2,700 acres of gooseberries. These days, they are a fairly rare sight, even at farmers markets. In part, that’s because growing gooseberries used to be illegal in New York State. The law was enacted in the early 1900s to prevent the spread of white pine blister rust. The federal version of the law was rescinded in 1966, and New York eventually followed suit in 2003. Dr. Brent Ridge and Josh Kilmer-Purcell of the Cooking Channel show “The Fabulous Beekman Boys” are on a mission to help gooseberries make a comeback. “I think gradually it’s catching on,” said Ridge. “We’re going to make gooseberry cronuts or something. It needs a trend, and we’re going to start it.” Ridge and Kilmer-Purcell grow gooseberries on their farm, Beekman 1802, in Sharon Springs, N.Y. “They’re like a tart green grape crossed with a plum,” said Ridge. “When they’re ripe off the vine, they’re edible raw but, most times, they’re cooked.” Gooseberries are just becoming ripe in upstate New York right now. The plants yield fruit for about two weeks, and the berries soften as they ripen on the bush. While gooseberries may seem like a relatively obscure fruit these days, Kilmer-Purcell explained how that wasn’t always the case. “Gooseberries became very, very popular in the 19th century, so much so they were almost a food fad,” he said. “And they spawned gooseberry clubs in England, and there were actually a couple in America.” (Photo: Brent Ridge and Josh Kilmer-Purcell/Tate Tullier) Gardeners would compete to see who could grow the largest gooseberry. The fruit, normally the size of a grape or smaller, could grow to the size of a small plum. Judges would use individual grains of sand portioned out with a feature to get exact measurements of the entries. “In the middle of this craze, England began trading their gooseberries with America and America began trading them back,” said Kilmer-Purcell. “And then... all heck broke loose. We got the blister rust; they got a mildew from our gooseberries.” That signalled the end of the fruit’s popularity but, now, gooseberries are back. Ridge said that they’re are often used in baked goods like gooseberry pies because sugar offsets the fruit’s tartness. Kilmer-Purcell put a modern spin on a classic English dessert with his recipe for goat cheese gooseberry fool. (The recipe is below.) “A fool is actually one of the oldest desserts on record,” he said, adding that it dates back to the Elizabethan era. “It’s basically a whipped cream that is made with stewed fruit... That sweetness of the fruit with the tangy sourness of the goat cheese and whipped cream is really delicious together.” Beekman 1802 Goat Cheese Gooseberry Fool 2 pints fresh or frozen gooseberries 1/2 C honey 1 C soft, fresh goat cheese 3 C heavy whipping cream In a heavy skillet, heat the gooseberries and 1/4C of the honey over medium heat until the berries have burst and softened. (Approx 4 minutes.) Either mash mixture with fork, or puree. Let cool, and chill in refrigerator. In stand mixer bowl, beat goat cheese with remaining 1/4C honey on medium speed until whipped and softened. Spoon mixture into separate medium mixing bowl. Pour heavy cream to the empty stand mixer bowl, and whip until barely thickened. (Don’t whip until stiff, as one would traditional whipped cream.) Gently fold the whipped cream into the goat cheese honey mixture, and allow to chill thoroughly. To serve, spoon gooseberry mixture into decorative stemmed glasses until about 1/3 full. Top with cream, honey and goat cheese mixture. Garnish with raw gooseberry, or its cousin — red or black currants.
