I like your style, the fact that your site is a little bit different makes it so interesting, I get fed up of seeing same-old-same-old all of the time. I've just stumbled this page for you :-D

Comment on How plants get their nutrients

My compost pile is getting really rich this summer! And the cucumbers are growing up that three sided support and producing like crazy; the tomatoes are weighing down the vines; all this rain may have caused problems for many but the gardens have loved it! Janet

Nice article. Thank you. I'm not familiar with the Song of India. It sounds like it just might like my east window.

Silence is the best reason for going to the garden. My head even stops thinking and the chatter quiet. Nice job. Thanks.

Comment on Growing Communities

Great article. I do gardening here at home and our neighbors all talk to each other as we are outside, but having an entire community garden would be wonderful.
I'd especially like knowing where the community gardens in Kansas City are located. Perhaps by somehow creating that kind of a map, more people would be encouraged to participate.
Thanks again! Janet

this is outstanding, and being an elementary educator I support these ideas while hoping for a better eating America starting tomorrow.

As an Environmental Scientist, I feel this article clarifies the need for sustainable food production and consumption. The author of this article does a great job in explaining the environmental benefits of consuming locally grown produce. To the readers of this article, heed Ms, Richardson's advice, consume local, sustainable produce to help support environmental health!
