We rural folk shop differently than you city people. Lots of us have to drive the better part of an hour to get to a grocery store. We don’t like to do that too often. Some of us are on a fixed income and we get our checks once a month. That means we shop once a month. (That’s why you sometimes see us hauling around 2 shopping carts once we get to a store.) Have you ever tried to keep lettuce in a refrigerator for one month? We don’t recommend it.
This is why we grow greens. We think three months without a salad is
just too long. 
A day without a salad is too long...we're going to attempt to grow Spinach through the winter here in Abingdon, VA using cold frames...we'll see if it works!
