Wonderful! And to think society tells him he's been useless for the past three decades.

This is a great story and I certainly admire he can do what he does at 91!!! Amazing.

I missed that part in the article so I am not sure if this is true. My guess is he is too busy living his life to care anyway so good on him!

There are a number of new-world fruits that grow with husks, aka leaves, protecting the fruit. Tomatillos are perhaps the best known.
