"350" garden -- a project in progress.
This garden was created in an old meadow, showing how food can be grown with a minimum of tools and time...
Last year, we prepared garden beds in 3,5 and 0 shapes with hand tools only -- a two-pronged hoe to dig and a scythe to cut mulch.
On 10/10/10, we took this project one step further;
Although the flowering sun chokes (jerusalem artichokes) in the "3" are still standing and the "5" is only roughly dug to harvest the vegetables, the "0" has been worked up to a fine seedbed -- the inner oval now planted in garlic, the outer heavily mulched with scythe-mown vegetation in preparation for spring seeding. A portion of the crop of potatoes and sun chokes harvested from the "5" and "0" make up the 350 in the centre of the 0.

Change comes slowly to the leaves in Monte Sano State Park. The ones that just turn brown have been falling for a while now. And the yellows have started to come out. But looking at the big picture of the mountain — from my front porch — it looks like the peak will be soon. (Bear in mind, that’s a guess from a guy that’s only seeing his second Fall here.) It finally rained a little today after 2 weeks of cloudless skies.

York is a seaside community that has experienced two hundred year #storms in succession in 2006 and 2007. These intense rainstorms flooded their business district, washed out roads and bridges and flooded people's homes. They're not waiting to prepare: they're starting to do adaptation projects for sea level rise and taking steps as a town to reduce carbon use.
whoops, here it is.

Aloha - below is the text we had on our leaflet. Attached is a copy of the map that was on the leaflet, as well as another shot of us at the Blaisdell.
Scientists agree reducing carbon emissions will help the planet from reaching the tipping point. They also agree the proposed Keystone XL Pipeline to transport tar sands fuel will mean game over for climate.
Tar sands fuel is some of the dirtiest on the planet. During production tar sands oil emits 3-5 times more CO2 than conventional oil. The pipeline offers all risk and no reward, except to a fewwho stand to make a killing.
This fall the President will make the final decision about the fate of this dirty, dangerous pipeline. Tell Pres. Obama to reject Keystone XL! Go to 350.org/en/stop-keystone-xl to sign the petition and find out more about what you can do to stop climate change!
Only me, on my 113-degree patio, following from the beginning, sending you all great thanks and support.

Thank you again.

A Blessing in Gratitude
Thank you for taking action.
On behalf of all of us -
All that is human
And more-than-human
All creatures that roam and fly
and swim and swarm and
crawl and burrow and wander.
All plants and rocks and trees.
May you have the blessing of the soil and the sky
of the oceans and hills
of the rivers and the valleys
Of all the elements
Of all life
All life everywhere
May you be blessed
In your standing and in your sitting
In your journeys and in your arriving
May you feel the strength
Of the hands that you hold
and that hold you.
May you feel the love of each of
the millions of souls that are with you in spirit though we are not there in
body.
May you know you were born
for this moment.
May you return home in safety and in joy.
(p.s. I just made a donation)

Like the little stream
Making its way
Through the mossy crevices
I, too, quietly
Turn clear and transparent.
