Tour de Fresh and Hope's Harvest



Growing Hope is having a wonderful tour tomorrow of some of what they've been doing. The weather looks great for this Tour de Fresh event. They are also having a fundraiser, Hope's Harvest, this coming Sunday at Cobblestone Farm. Lots of good local food and drinks put together by local chefs - I for one and certainly going to partake.

The 11th Hour: Movie Review





In a nutshell, the 11th Hour film is a must see. It is a nicely compiled and edited film that fairly simply makes the point that we need to re-think, re-design, and transition from living off of ancient sunlight back to living more off of current sunlight while using technology wisely. And it reinforces that we should all continue ramping up the green things we do individually as well as holding politicians accountable all the while voting with our pocket books and choices. Sure, for some, this is preaching to the choir but you should see it anyway so you can internalize the message this film has finely honed and continue spreading the good word.
