(Big Sigh) As I realize we need to be more directly involved with our food. I've been growing asparagus and greens, lettuce, onions, many more, and expanding into ever more all the time. I am able to buy some good organic produce from farmers around me, things like strawberries that I don't want to grow but I don't want to buy inorganic that's for sure. The area I live in, up until about 25 years ago, was full of small 40-acre farms with hedgerows. Almost all of that was turned into croplands. No more hedgerows which is bad for the birds bees butterflies. Luckily I'm not close to any cropland and live up against a mountain, but still, now that much of the cropland is turning into suburbs I'm wondering which is worse. And who's going to inhabit these homes?
