Not to mention the costs of preventing cross polination in order to keep
numerous seed varieties available for us Chile-Heads. Also, the cost of
building her greenhouse.

Fred,
I wonder how much it cost her for phytosanitary inspections?
I wonder how much she spends on catalogs and mailing?
I wonder how much it cost for those mailing boxes?
Since she has a business, I wonder how much she has to pay in Federal, state
and local taxes?
I wonder how much she has to pay for heat and electric to grow all those
seedlings?
I wonder how much in property taxes she has to pay?
Just part of the business.
L.B.
