Date: May 29, 2007 06:58PM When I lived in the south of France, I would often visit one of my friends who was au pairing for a family of little girls. The mother had recently died and the father was a full-time dentist.They lived in a large house surrounded by a large garden. The mother had loved plants and natural medecine and had cultivated all kinds of herbs and fruits. We all 5 girls spent the Mediterranean spring and summer days feasting on whatever was ripe and making herb teas (tisanes) with all kinds of herbs she had planted. It was really beautiful, apart from the sadness of thinking about the 'missing' mother and how she had tried to teach her daughters about nature. Re: garden eating

Date: May 30, 2007 03:47AM Growing an herb garden-- or any kind of garden-- sounds like heaven. I am waiting for my public garden plot to open up for me-- I'm next on a waiting list. I think gardening and buying local is the future if we really want to a) stay real healthy and b) feel secure about the food we're eating.
I'm looking into indoor gardening (I'm 18 floors up, small apt. with one really big, sunny window in the living room.) Sharrhan:

Yeah and it's one of the most powerful things we can do. We don't have much control over the quality of our environments would love to see things change... [www.postcarbon.org] I love this org.
