$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('pstarr', 'I') read the article and first my reaction was 'sharecropper for the wealthy. And they're letting the 'help' right into the estate. How egalitarian

(maybe I'm spending too much time on this board?)
It wasn't long ago that the wealthy employed gardeners on their estates, for several purposes, for the ornamental gardens, and also for a "cook's garden" to feed or supplement the household.
The return to this is just "what's new is really old again"...
