    I found out that you can throw meat scraps and dairy in the compost except I don't think I will because the smell may just be wicked.

    This Saturday and Sunday I got to participate in some Earth Day festivals! They were both very neat. I was showing how you can dye clothing with plants and I think that a lot of individuals were inspired to go save their onion skins or avo rinds to use as dye for their textiles.

    I think that it's very important to save seeds! It is also very important to save our own seeds because they are then not GMO'd/organic!

    Yesterday I wished my little roommates a happy earthly wth some fresh produce bunches!!! It was fun and I think it reminded them of all the fun colors and nutrition that we receive from colored veggies.
