Very inspiring. I guess that's why it's called the Garden State!
I spent a few days there in my youth picking tomatoes for a relative who had a small farm. Just remembered that after reading your post.
We're putting in a small veggie/herb garden this week for a client just down the street. They do a lot of home cooking and he was in the food service biz for many years including time spent in DC. He has some interesting stories too.
I'll plant a seed in their head about the tomatoes and sauce...
