I thought the word sulfur and dried fruit were already connected in my head, and went and checked my bag of apricots, which says they are treated with "sulfur dioxide (sulfites)". I can't read the whole article, but a Wikipedia search doesn't seem to imply sodium metabisulfite is much worse than Sulphur dioxide. Both are talked about as if they are in active use all over the world. Do you have any extra detail on why this is a notable enough case to warrant an article? The paywall got me before I could find that out

Goji, goji berry, or wolfberry (Chinese: 枸杞; pinyin: gǒuqǐ) is ... [from wikipedia]

I can't read most of the article due to paywall, but I thought many dried fruits had sulfur something something in them to preserve color. I wonder if this is just an extreme version of that

Looks so manicured now! Now that the weed barrier is down and you shouldnt need the mower there, you think you'll consider putting more beds in?

Well it's hard to say, the early birds got the saskatoons and I only got 2 (two!). They're blueberry like, maybe a bit less tart and a bit creamier(?). Definitely looking forward to meet years crop!

Ive never heard of rattlesnake beans, looks fun! I mostly have just been putting perennial fruits in the ground, I've got raspberries, blueberries, Saskatoons, and elderberries. I might start some annuals next year

I like the little mini fences, very cute! What kind of beans are you growing?
