Gardening

I just found this website that has some really good information.  I particularly liked the info on container gardening.  For those of you who don't know what it is, it is for people who don't have a lot of room to garden.  So there are absolutely no more excuses!  Get to gardening!  Just pick something, one thing... and decide to grow it.  You will be surprised with the fun you will have seeing something grow.  Also, it will prepare you for when you have to grow things "for real".  What do they say...practice makes perfect!  So let's start practicing!  Click HERE.

The Future of Food

Check out this video. There is no doubt that this country was founded upon agriculture. But little by little, our main source of income has changed from an agricultural to an industrial society. This video describes how the government, along with big agricultural corporations are damaging the future of food and making it impossible, economically, to be a small farmer. It’s one-hour long but it shows, in detail, this problem we are facing as a country and the lack of knowledge the average citizen has about where our food comes from and how it is made. Think about it, do you or whom do you know that gardens? If we cannot feed ourselves, we then, depend on a couple of big corporations to do that for us. The question I have is how vulnerable are we?
