 GJ> I get fresh local vegetables the year round

I can only get fresh local moss and tree bark year round and even
then it's fresh frozen 7 months of the year. [g]

 GJ> I see out of
 GJ> season grapes from California offered at an exhorbitant $15/kg.

That's outrageous. B.C. grapes on a seasonal basis are under $3/kg
here but out of season California or even Chilean grapes are rarely
over $4.99.

Funny that we get Chilean grapes during California's off season but
not Australian or NZ grapes. Surely you export fresh grapes as well
as wines.
