bleh...interesting, but still bleh

Asparagus will keep coming up all summer long, and is a perennial, so plant it where you wanna keep it (and everyone needs an asparagus patch). Chives are perennials, as well as rhubarb. Plant some cucumbers so you can make pickles. Mmmm pickles. My uncle used to grow pumpkins and they were so lovely…I would grow pumpkins. One year my older sister wanted her own garden, and she had flowers in there along with her veggies, it was really nice. (But my younger sister and I decided to plant some chicken feed in her patch, and wheat, corn and sunflowers started growing all through it, she had no idea what she did wrong, HA I was such a jerk). I heard that Corn sucks to grow, but I can't remember why….But sunflowers are great.

Since the start of the school year, I asked the students if they would consider eating vegetarian 2-3 times a week. Most said yes and love it. Do you do this? Would you consider it? Eco-Eating Poverty and Hunger issues I have been asked for veggie recipes so many times in the last couple weeks, I was wondering what your fav's are so I can pass them along. When I have a second I will post some of mine. Thanks all

I thought that some of you would be interested in this. It's pretty crazy what we are doing in Alberta, and most people don't even know. North American Environmental Atlas. http://www.tarsandswatch.org/
