So the reason I started this journey is not just because the new “chic” in thing to do is try to be “organic” I’ve been working with an organic organization for over 5 years and it really has taught me the value of doing what’s right… Since my degree is in Environmental Biology I have to think of not only my children and my community – I need to think if the environment… I have never used pesticides on my garden before but I’ve also never used any organic techniques to grow anything either… I’m not sure why exactly because I know several… so this is my year. I read a great blog post on Tiny Farm Blog about making water in the winter… how on earth did I not think of this… what a great way to reuse earth’s natural resource. Although right now I dont’ have a hoop house so I don’t need that much water in the winter – I just thought it was worth it to share with others…
Product of note: Since I’m working with The Happy Gardener – I’ve noticed that they have a great Rain Barrel Kit for connecting a hose to a rain barrel (which is on my wish list now because I know I’ll need one come summer). Check it out and if you’d like to purchase one – Email me!
