My Google Reader came up with a Post on the Garden Vines Blog about the Ruby-Throated hummingbird migration today. There was a link showing a Hummingbird Migration Map. I was pretty excited about last year’s map, I guess the little hummingbirds start showing up in New Hampshire around late April. There’s already sightings in Southern [...]

Farmer's Market Tool
So I’m big into supporting local farmers that practice sustainable agriculture and who treat their meat animals with respect before they become steak, so I try to buy some of my food from local farmer’s markets.
