Global Farms & BlogLovin
Hello all! First, I wanted to say thanks to everyone who stopped by for the Sustainable Yard Tour. I think we had about 100 or so people here, and a good time was had by all. We met a lot of other garden geeks and seed savers, as well as a great number of local foodies and just all around cool people. We were also able to connect with Andy from the International Institute, about the cool project they are doing, called the Global Farms Initiative.

Gardening is the most therapeutic and defiant act you can do, especially in the city. Plus, you get strawberries. ~~ Ron Finley Hello all! In honor of Mother’s Day, I spent the weekend planting a crazy organic garden, playing in the dirt. I planted about 60 or so cucumbers, aka Pickle Seeds.

The garlic I planted last fall is coming up like crazy, the herbs are on full display and things are blooming...
Read MoreOne Billion Rising–Dancing is a Revolution
“Dancing insists we take up space. It has no set direction but we go there together. It’s dangerous, joyous, sexual, holy, disruptive. It breaks the rules. It can happen anywhere at anytime with anyone and everyone. It’s free. No corporation can control it. It joins us and pushes us to go further. It’s contagious and it spreads quickly. It’s of the body. It’s transcendent.” Hello all! It’s what my friend Janet calls Activist Shaman time, and she’s probably right. But if this isn’t about healing, then I don’t know what is....

Hello Everyone, Happy New Year! Our friend Linda Wanner is bringing one of her favorite teachers to St. Louis for a series of classes beginning in March and I wanted to pass along that information, scroll down to see their brochure. I have never worked with the presenter so cannot personally attest, but FYI in case this is something that resonates with you. This is an exciting time of change and transition and if you are feeling fearful, out of balance or as if you are not thriving, it’s good to seek support during those times. For some people that means coming to someone like me or...
