A little over a year ago The Lummi Island Grange decided to offer a series of workshops on the general subject of rural life, community education being one of the Grange missions. We called it the Country Living Series, a name we borrowed from the Hood River Grange which runs a similar program.

		<description><![CDATA[In my garden the overwintered kale (White Russian) is six feet tall and bolting, buzzing with honeybees and bumblebees. Seed pods are forming and will drop seed and new plants will pop up later in the summer. This is a form of permaculture, I suppose. I like to see the kale blooms and though some <a href='http://transitionlummiisland.com/real-life-villains'>[...]</a>]]></description>

This year, however, I discovered Evernote which has become my favorite application. Evernote helps me remember, document and journal things.

		<description><![CDATA[Last Saturday, Lummi Island&#8217;s own Whitney Thomas of http://www.organic-unity.com led a three hour workshop on our favorite local spring plant—nettles. This workshop, graciously co-sponsored by The Lummi Island Heritage Trust, started with a foraging expedition on the Curry Preserve where we learned when and how to harvest the nettle.

		<description><![CDATA[When Carol Deppe wrote The Resilient Gardener she really got me thinking about what I wanted to plant in the garden to truly provide real food for the longest period of time. Her formula consisted of duck eggs, beans, corn, potatoes and squash. This would provide her protein and carbohydrates and lots of calories over <a href='http://transitionlummiisland.com/still-got-squash'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The modern diseases of cancer, arthritis, chronic infection, diabetes, lupus, fibromyalgia, etc. are essentially symptoms of malnutrition brought about by insufficient nutrition in the food that we eat. Big agriculture treats their fields with chemicals and gene splicing. Medicine treats disease with drugs (chemicals) and surgery. It&#8217;s curious that every natural food store also has <a href='http://transitionlummiisland.com/garden-for-medicine'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In organic gardening circles compost is sacrosanct. So when somebody with a resume like Steve Solomon says we can use too much compost, as he has in his new book The Intelligent Gardener, organic gardeners recoil in horror.
JI Rodale&#8217;s Organic Gardening and Farming Magazine introduced organics to North Americans.
Steve Solomon summarizes Rodale&#8217;s approach as follows: <a href='http://transitionlummiisland.com/contrarian-thoughts-on-compost'>[...]</a>]]></description>

Because I strongly believe that if we weren&#8217;t so military, that if making war on people didn&#8217;t seem to be our country&#8217;s primary business, we might have money to spend on <a href='http://transitionlummiisland.com/road-cut-mcalister'>[...]</a>]]></description>
