Some Things Are Happening Here

My garden benefactor, Sh'mal



Sh'mal asked me to post this for him. Some of you know him as a social worker, others for his help with the homeless in Gainesville, FL. He managed the McRorie Community Garden for some time. I met him there. I wound up with my patch because he gave his to me. He was moving to Seattle to be… Continue

GPD STEPS UP TO THE PLATE



I am deeply grateful and happy to let you know that the Gainesville

Police Department is joining in the effort to keep our homeless friends

hydrated and well through the extreme heat of this summer. They are

accepting donations of bottled water, sun screen and bug spray at their

headquarters, 721 NW 6th Street, and taking them out to areas where

homeless people camp. They have also created… Continue

FOOD CLUB

The Concept is a simple one yet extremely hard to grasp and think about in

a spiraling out of control world we are participating or not in.



First of all sprouts are mother natures number one most nutritious food.



Q. When was the last time that you ate a serving of sprouts?



More than likely it has been a while and with all the propaganda some good but mostly bad press on the dangers of sprouts and greens that most people have now become programed to…

Holy Basil Tea



Eric gave me some of this Holy Basil tea. The striking thing is its taste. It's delicious.

Nearly as surprizing is how far it goes. I made a pot using one tea

bag. It's extremely strong. It easily yields several cups from a tea

bag. Wikipedia describes Holy Basil as "

Ocimum tenuiflorum (also tulsi, tulasī) is an aromatic plant…

UF Solar Decathlon Team Needs Your Vote



Let's hope both Spain and the United States can both make it far enough in the World Cup to meet each other in the semi final rounds. But if we can't meet on the pitch for the challenge of the cup, we can at least know that the challenge…

Musical Pathways to Healing the Waters and Her Creatures :bp oil spill



Like so many of you, I have been pained and furious about the bp oil spill. I deliberately use the small letters to reflect the way that this catastrophic event is being minimized with real news deliberately hidden. One spills milk or a plate of berries not millions of gallons of oil! Could I rage across this page and vent my spleen hell yeah and there's a place for that lest anyone at this point be lulled into… Continue

Veggie Burgers

Veggie Burgers





Nick proudly told me he and Erin made a batch of delicious veggie burgers. He used a recipe from a guy called The Minimalist at the NYTimes. I had to try it. They turned out so good and you won't believe how easy it was.



Here's how you do it.… Continue

Organic Pest control

I have decided that you have to really think deep with what you will put onto you plants and in the ground. A short trip to the organic store has proved that to me. I walk in and ask for my Neem at 100% pressed and there it is. Totally impressed I start to ask questions. I want to know if there are other products I could be using. The nice sales person shows me some OMRI approved spray. Always wanting to be adventurous I buy it. But being a careful soul I look it up online when I get home.…

Normal Day

"Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are. Let me learn from you, love you, bless you before you depart. Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect tomorrow. Let me hold you while I may, for it may not always be so. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in the pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return." -Mary Jean… Continue

THANK YOUS!



A belated thank you to the children of Westminster Presybterian Church,

who made 12 dozen dyed Easter eggs for us to take out. They do this

graders who collected an awesome amount of food for us, along with some

socks and hygiene products. The PK 9th graders are making a special

project of learning about homeless people and doing… Continue

Beetsa Party

It was a full, full moon over McRorie Community Garden. The owls hooted, the doves cooed, and the air was full of electricity, misty with the setting dew and clouds.







What's Beetsa? Why, it's pizza made with beet sauce, of…
