    have you ever thought of creating such a “community” on your own farm w/ seminars or whatever?

    my original intent here was to get
    share/market going with atlanta
    people who couldnt get good organic
    produce. a sort of buying club,
    with upfront funds for my work, seeds,gas for tiller and etc. in exchange for fixed # bagfuls of
    various produce all summer.
    even a “come and pick” family
    visiting farm. instead i sold herbs and produce via an organic buddy who took stuff to chef’s market in the city weekly.

    i ended up smaller-scale: trades and exchanges with friends and neighbors[massage, eggs, melons car repairs, organic chicken, a clothes-dryer, haircuts, etc.]

    these days fresh/organic produce
    is fairly available, and i’m
    alot less social…

    Organic is still a little more expensive than non-organic. And the “little more” can mean a lot to some folks. Getting to know the farmer and what is meant by “farm fresh” instead of jumping on the organic bandwagon might be something to consider.

Oh, hi there!

I was a garden blog pioneer, and began writing on this blog in 2003. Before that I had begun a garden website that has been at its own domain since 2006, Ilona's Garden.

I still love writing, gardening, and art after all these years, although travel and grandchildren have become a big part of my life, now.
