The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.

Why would anyone grow Jerusalem artichokes?





They look like sunflowers (since they are related) and if you pull out the roots you find tubers. You use the tubers to make soup: http://homecooking.about.com/od/soups/r/blss36.htm (copy and past to follow link) We are trying to learn if it is true you can smoke the roots too.
