Fwd: Living off the land - Sat. classes at Common Ground

[Guest guest]

Hi again, everyone! If you like to garden, these classes may be of

interest to you. I do volunteer work for Biointensive for Russia, an

organization which teaches the Biointensive gardening method to people in Russia

and Uzbekistan.

 

Take care again,

Shoshana
