The latest edition of our Friends of Troy Gardens free email newsletter went out today. You can view it on our website at http://www.troygardens.org/newsletters/08-04.html. This edition of our newsletter highlights SPIN (S-mall P-lot IN-tensive) Farming (you won't want to miss this!), Your Backyard Farmer (Portland, OR), global warming's effect on drying up Lake Mead (a major water supply in the Southwest USA), and two articles on the connection between peak oil and our food supply.
We strive to bring you important, timely information about urban agriculture, energy issues, sustainable practices, and more while always cognizant of our world on the brink of oil depletion. Our organization, <http://www.troygardens.org/> Friends of Troy Gardens, provides an opportunity for people to grow their own food locally in our community gardens or purchase locally produced food from our organic farm. A unique aspect of our program is the additional stewardship of prairie and forest lands. We also educate children and adults about how to grow food and eat nutritionally. If you aren't on our newsletter recipient list, I encourage you to sign up at <http://www.friendsoftroygardens.org/sutoouremne.html> http://www.friendsoftroygardens.org/sutoouremne.html. (Our previous newsletters are also archived at this link.) I think you will find our newsletters interesting, informative, and professional. If you should ever want to unsubscribe, it is easy to do with the click of your mouse on the SafeUnsubscribe link at the bottom of each newsletter. ______________________________ Bob Gragson, Executive Director Friends of Troy Gardens 3601 Memorial Dr., Bldg. 14, Rm. 171 Madison, WI 53704 (office) 608-240-0409 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.troygardens.org <http://www.troygardens.org/> (main website) http://www.friendsoftroygardens.org <http://www.friendsoftroygardens.org/> (ecommerce) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
