Hi Raul, Your water gardens seem very interesting. My gardens are meant to be so simple that any mom or dad can grow veggies in their back yards. If you want to learn more, just visit my website or use this link. You can email directly to donrose...

Nice interview, Don. I don't live in NC, but I do a lot of the things you talk about in the interview.

One comment, BT is the thing people should ask for. :) Another comment related to this, is that BT itself is great as a repellant to certain pests, but GMO BT plants are NOT good. In that form they kill beneficial organism, and who knows what it does to us.

Thank you so much in terms of working with children, I think this is critical on so many levels, both in terms of children's health and in terms of how they treat their world.

Has anyone else considered living by a 100-mile diet (only eating foods grown/raised within 100 miles of your house)? I just listened to a really amazing podcast on a couple from Vancouver, BC who did it for a year and am inspired to try it myself...

I think one major thing to consider when gardening on your flat roof top or balcony, is the weight of the pots/compost and the strength of the structure you are placing them on.

Hi Gillian I totally agree about the sweet potato leaves. I thought they were great to eat as well.

HOW TO - ADD A LINK

Several people have experienced difficulty putting working links into comments and blogs etc and I know it is clumsy.... so here is how you do it.....

First type the text you want to appear....  ie  IAN'S PAGE

Then go back and highlight the link text.

Then hit the hyperlink button...a pictogram of a chain link.

Your browser may intervene and request permission to allow temporary scripting or some similar message.   Allow it and go back and highlight the text again
