Here’s a podcast on gardening in hard times and why it matters to garden. Please take a listen. Thanks to Jason, the self-sufficient gardener for putting it into perspective: http://theselfsufficientgardener.com/. Episode 121. Not sure if we’re on the same page politically (I think he doesn’t give enough credit to the pull corporations have on affecting current state of affairs), but he has some good points from the gardener’s perspective. Have a listen and let me know what you think. Doing this post from my iPhone so I may have to plug in the link later. For now,please copy/paste. And, despite living in hard times, revel on!
