March 13, 2009. Local food: in illinois legislation! Did you know that Agriculture is Illinois' largest industry but 95% of that is exported? Now a days it seems everyone is sucking in that deep expansive breath and focusing a little more on what's under our noses. The Illinois Local and Organic Food and Farm Task Force is promoting legislature. That will help keep 20% of the Illinois' food consumption LOCAL! Crystal The Indo Projects. In relation to: food.

October 31, 2008. CSA Boxes, support your local farmer! CSA: Community Supported Agriculture. In Chicago I use freshpicks. To deliver a full box of fresh fruits and veggies from various local farms to me, every other week. Its chock full of amazing goodies, and they usually add in one or two small surprises (one week it was wild mushrooms, another homemade spaghetti sauce! Why is it good? What does it cost? Deliver is an extra $5, not bad! Go to Local Harvest. To find a CSA near you. In relation to: food.

December 21, 2008. Chickens are in this year . . . In Northern California, backyard chickens are the latest accessory. They have by far surpassed the Prius in popularity contests among the eco-conscious housewife set. They make an amusing addition to the household. Happy chickens will give you an egg a day once they are mature. Another benefit - you can feed them all of your veggie table scraps and use the chicken poop for your compost. What a time saver!

February 24, 2009. So, I know you see these things all the time, but it's always good to get a little reminder. Here's a really fun carbon footprint calculator from earthday.org:. Http:/ http:/ www.earthday.net/footprint/index.html. I used all the advanced options and, even though I think I'm doing a really great job, I'm consuming 3.5 planets. Although, they don't give you extra brownie points for composting, rainwater harvesting, or having your own garden. In relation to: culture change. Chocolate make...

January 22, 2009. Lets turn on Disposable Culture. We are a disposable culture. Can you find room to disagree? While it can be a pain to bring with you everything you might need in one day, its our responsibility to at least try to be aware of the things we are throwing away, that really we don't need to be using or tossing in the first place. Eating out is a large instigator of this culture: aluminum foil, plastic/styrofoam containers, wax paper, plastic sporks, paper/plastic bags all for one meal?

drop by bit: Craigslist, what a sharing world
http://dropbybit.blogspot.com/2009/04/craigslist-what-sharing-world.html
April 09, 2009. Craigslist, what a sharing world. Directed me to one of the nicest craigslist ads. This ad is an endearing example of how we thoughtfully make the world better: less stank in your fridge after vacation and healthy food in anothers tummy. This particularly looks like a sweet arse veggie soup finished off by a grilled pineapple dessert. Yum! Crystal The Indo Projects. In relation to: culture change. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
