Hi,

Thanxs for the visit earlier to my little blog. I appreciate it. That is a scary statistic, the one about how in 90 years one in two people will go hungry.

I personally know (unfortunately) of a few souls who live recklessly and because they don’t go without, don’t really think too much about those who do go without. And it boils my blood, so to speak. Because the future is not going to remain as we see it now. But these are also the same people who will not fully understand the REASONS why things will be, the way they will be.

We all need to do our part and help in whatever ways we can. Not too sound to morose. lol. But that is a scary stat, and fact is, it could very well be true. I wish more people would HEED the call to action. You know.

I’ll get off my pitty pat pot now. Glad to have met via the Eco Carnival.

Talk soon,
Missy.

Hey Joe – thanks for dropping by. I loved your blog about making paper. I have got stacks of scrap stored for when I can make myself a little frame.

SO excited to hear about your Victory Garden … can you share with us where you did your footprint test?

I agree, if everyone started eating food that was grown/raised locally, we’d cut our carbon footprints by a LOT. I took an ecological footprint quiz, and “food” made up more than half my footprint

Anyhoo, I started my “victory” garden last year, but there wasn’t too much victory in it :-/ Hopefully this year will be better for it

Great to have you drop by, Mrs G!

I was thinking about the bottom of your garden … how about going for a paddy field?!

Just in case you could use some reminders about how to get started “growing your own”, here’s a link to the summary of the webcast we did with Penney Poyzer on that very subject. The summary includes links to useful resources and a personal planner document too :

Hey Thank you for the mention of zero waste week; it’s a great challenge for people to take on as a way of living a greener 2009.
Funnily enough, I’ve just been thinking of a few plans for our own garden. Last year we had an abundant crop of horsetail and bindweed on our clay soil; so much so, we almost turfed everything over during the autumn. However, we’ve decided to try and love our land more and make it more productive for us. I did it one year and it was totally amazing; now I need to do that again. And with all your lovely recipes to inspire us to use our bounty, there is even MORE reason to stop procrastinating and just get on and do it.
Trouble is, the bottom of the garden is like a boggy marsh at this time of year. Ho hum….
