John & Ellen's Backyard Revolution

My experience Saturday, 5/16 was quiet - most people bypassed our table. I don't know what it will take to bring people in. I agree - sharing the table with the CRC will certainly boost attendance. I didn't know we could borrow a pop-up tent. But i…

Hey guys...hope your work going on at the house went well this afternoon!! We missed you! I'd mentioned that I'd have trouble helping at the TL booth at the Market because I'm already there (as I was the other week when I saw you!) working for my b…

That is a great movie Ashley and maybe we could show a portion at the end of the meeting for folks who have not seen it. I would recommend this as a film that could also be screened at introductory meetings. Apologies to Ellen and John for falling o…

I have an interesting movie called "End of Suburbia." I know we have a lot to discuss, but I would like to play an hour of the movie. What does everyone think about that? I could play the movie at the beginning of the meeting (for inspiration). Or,…

Hey Guys,

I'm on my feet and pecking away. I know Strider can sound paranoid, and I usuallydon't share his views.

I'd like to share some information. During the Y2K period Michael gave an interview to Global Public Media. If you will google his name, Michael Brownlee and Y2K, the interview will come up. It lasts 31 minitues and to me is quite instructive. I hope you will look at it and tell me what you think.

You are the future.
Jim

Thanks Rosellen & John for yesterday's upbeat visit to your garden - impromptu hosting a group of us after the Longmont Library Transition presentation- to show and tell your Gaia's garden inspired beautifully patterned sheetmulch and compost that smelled like springtime in January. You are off to a great beginning, even if that huge Maple tree seems to pose a light problem when it leafs out in summer. Am sure you will find a good balanced solution for tree you and your food growing.

I need your email to send you as attachment the you-tube videos list I've compiled, or get it from this site under new discussion - am putting the recently revised list there also. I keep adding to it.

Tanks for sharing your seed catalogues, See the events on this site for the seed ordering pot luck at Betsy Burton and Mike Whipp's Farmette in Lyons, should be great.

Cheers/ Coco

Hey Rosellen
Tell me more about your energy efficiency interests please-
& John
What fun things are you making with your carpentry? And what Permaculture principles are you using in your landscaping design? have you seen Bill Wilson's Midwest Permaculture garden descriptions, the way he gets water to stay in his garden longer?
Looks like Bill has interviewd Rob Hopkins:
Here is the link to the radio program. You can listen to it live right on your computer from anywhere in the world. Contact Bill Wilson or C. Milton Dixon

Cheers/
Coco
