I found this video through SouleMama's Blog. So, what do you think ?? Would you yank out your lawn to do this ??

She always looked on that time in England as the worst of times, but also the best...because everyone pulled together and did amazing things like this...hmmm. Thanks for this post..love it!; May 2, 2008 at 9:07 PM

To me this video is forward thinking. Know where your food is coming from and buy it as close to home as possible.; May 3, 2008 at 7:41 PM

Annie, I could totally see you doing this!; May 11, 2008 at 1:09 PM
