He Won’t Eat Lima Beans, So Don’t Ask
Mike McGrath, passionate organic gardener and tomato fan
No offense, but –leave your Lima beans at home when you visit the Southeastern Flower Show on opening day. Why? Because keynote speaker Mike McGrath, host of the nationally syndicated public radio show, ”You Bet Your Garden,” hates Lima beans with a passion, that’s why.
Hey, we’re cool with that, Mike. After all, the theme for the 2009 show is passion, and that intense emotion doesn’t always mean you love something. You can passionately hate a certain flower or veggie, too!
Luckily, Mike is passionate in a positive way about many other garden delights, like the tomatoes pictured in his cartoon. He’s also crazy about organic gardening, and he’s eager to teach you how to raise your own bountiful organic harvest. Don’t miss his keynote lecture, “A Passion for Nature: The Seven Secrets to Successful Organic Gardeners,” on Wednesday, Jan. 28, at 11 a.m., or his workshop that afternoon at 2 p.m.
If you’re got a lust for Limas, and you think you raise the most lucious legumes around, feel free to stop and talk to Mike while you’re at the show. Ask him to give yours a try.
Just don’t say we didn’t warn you.
cheers,
Lynn
