OT: Was Healthy Food, Now 100 Foot Diet Challenge

[Guest guest]

Hi Butch,

 

Nice to hear from you about the rising price of produce, and your choice of

living where things could be kept natural.

 

I have to say I share much disgust at the price of fruits and veggies,

especially organics. I am also willing to pay for good quality, local

produce. The price has helped me decide to take a serious look at the space

available at my tiny little yard, so I can get to work on a year-round

container herb, veggie, and fruit garden.

 

A family in Pasadena, California has found a way to make growing at home

into a family business. On the side, they have issued a challenge to all us

home-gardeners. The 100 Foot Diet can be found at

http://www.pathtofreedom.com/journal/. It lays out a committment to grow

food for at least one meal a week at home. This gives newbies like

me something to strive toward with a garden.

 

More and more people like me are really interested in living more naturally,

and are going at it while firmly entrenched in an urban setting.

 

Cheers,

Christina
