Re: [GWL]: Organic Style

Saxon, I agree with much that you say in this note.  However, I find
something of a disconnect reading this publication and when it comes to food
products..that's what they are products to buy.  If they can tweak it and
offer recipes for easy organic gardening and food growing it will be more
balanced. I really like your statement about sustainability not just in our
gardens but in our lives.
