Help me raise money for this important charity that I support. "Eating Animals," by Jonathan Safran Foer, or "Food, Inc." the movie, should give you some background as to why this cause is so important. Thanks in advance!

Double Bee Farm's planting party

By Alicia C -
Planting party in Conyers, GA! What a great thing to be a part of; sustainable community agriculture. And the sort of volunteering experience that seems more like a holiday. My parents out that way purchase stuff from them all the time - everything from goat cheese logs to shitaake mushroom spore-treated logs, to a large variety of vegetables, baked goods - you can even buy your own herd of African Pygmy Goats from these folks! Mysteriously enough, they don't seem to have a website, but they can be followed on twitter: @ doublebeefarm I just wanted to give everyone an update about the Planting Party Sunday. It is still on rain or shine. We plan to start as early as your can make it. I will be working from dawn till done…. We are going to transplant, plant garlic and even seed some beds. We do need all the help we can get. It only takes about 20 minuets to transplant a flat but we got 20 flats + 45lbs of garlic, onions and lots of seeds. Our addres

A little bit of idle chatter...

The rains finally came yesterday. About time for Fall to finally show its face around here...! Temps have decreased into the 70s, which is where we need to be right now. Nights are getting longer, daytime starts later, skies appear grayer. This is my kind of weather--the kind one can stay indoors without feeling any guilt. Fall colors, the anticipation of the Holidays! Smells of home cooking in the air: cinnamon, cloves, vanilla, hot apple cider! Apple pie, spice cookies, hot chocolate and caramel corn. Pumpkins all over the place, trick-or-treaters at your door. And then, the smell of pine trees in the house; the family gatherings, the Christmas lights; the yule logs, the gift exchanges... This is definitely my most favorite time of the year! This season I vow to let go of all my resentments, all my peeves, all my ill-will. I'm tired of feeling beaten down. I'll be tolerant of the nasty political ads on TV (November elections coming up--ugh!). I'll let go of my pes

A Full Life

As I sit in my sick bed, riddled with a respiratory bug, I can't help but think that one hundred years ago, I  probably wouldn't have lived to tell the tale;  pneumonia was not an easy disease to overcome. So I wonder, did people  in those days  live their lives more fully or more in a hurry so to speak , since their life spans were notoriously shorter and they had to accomplish their life callings a lot  quicker? At this point in my life I've come to realize that, although my accomplishments are few and insignificant  compared to heroes and other superstars, I am content. I don't believe in "bucket lists," but in taking opportunities as they present themselves, in making the best of any situation. I believe we all have a purpose for being, no matter how small, no matter how banal it may seem. Sometimes that purpose is not fully revealed to us in our lifetime, but as with "I t's a Wonderful Life ," I feel there is no telling how the world we
