I guess we are not alone in our endeavor to grow more of what we eat! We were the first people we knew to take out our lawn and put in a garden. And yes, I have my eye on our front lawn. It is so wasteful to water and fertilize such a large space, when it could be providing food. I know that a lot of people think this is crazy, but I think it is sensible. I also know that the yard can be beautiful without lawn. I wouldn't row garden like the folks in the video, but what an awesome idea to include your neighbors! What a great way to build community, sharing something we all need and love...food. Can we make a living sharing our passion for gardening and growing your own food? We think we can, and we are about to give it a try!!

About Me
- Staci
- I am just a girl who loves Jesus, wants to know Him more and follow Him wherever He may lead. I am also blessed with a wonderful family: a husband, whom I adore, and five beautiful kids(so far!). I plan to use this blog as a place to journal about the things most important in my life: my relationship with God, my family, adoption, gardening, reading and whatever else comes to mind.

What You Should Know About HIV and AIDS
-HIV can NOT be spread through casual/household contact. HIV is not spread through hugging, kissing, shaking hands, sharing toys, sneezing, coughing, sharing food, sharing drinks, bathing, swimming or any other casual way. It has been proven that HIV and AIDS can only be spread through sexual contact, birth, breastfeeding and blood to blood contact (such as sharing needles).- HIV is now considered a chronic but manageable disease. With treatment, people who are HIV+ can live indefinitely without developing AIDS and can live long and full lives.- People who are HIV+ deserve to be treated with love, respect, support and acceptance as all people do.Additional information on transmission of HIV can be found on the Center for Disease Control website: http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/resources

One of my friends made a garden out of her front yard growing peppers and tomatoes and all kinds of stuff. Her's looks really nice. I don't see why you couldn't take out your front lawn and put in a neat garden with rocks and veggies and stuff.
