Square Foot Gardening List - http://www.flinet.com/~gallus/sqft.html

I do not garden the square foot method, although I did read Mel B's book 
and took some tips from it.  I also grow organically.  I also  belong to 
an organic list (begins with ogl) and have just about given up;  
couldn't stand the politics of it (what is organic, male bashing, tree 
hugging, etc).  Right now I get the digest version, take a look at the 
topics and usually trash the entire digest.  

I am not sure that there is any absolute definition of organic growing 
for home gardeners (different story for farmers who choose to be 
certified organic growers).  Your definition seems to be a fair 
statement 

As for giving out the URL, I have to idea what the rules are.  I assumed 
anyone could participate in this list.  If that is not the case, the 
list owner can contact me and I will get off the list.  I hope that is 
not the case, however.  Very nice list and very nice people with a 
refreshing lack of unpleasantness.  If you are looking for other lists, 
there is a heirloom gardening list, most of whose members seem to be 
organic growing types.  Also there is a tomato list which is a lot of 
fun.

Good Growing

>Hello All,  

>I am a member of this really great, or better yet was a really great
list that is being torn apart by a select few debating what is and what 
is not organic.  I was always lead to believe that the use of any
chemicals that were no natural was not organic.  That you needed to use 
only what mother nature gave you to grow in the garden.  I do not wish 
this to become a debate, just correct me if I am wrong. Also, do we have 
members that do not square foot garden?  Is it ok for me to give out 
this URL to those member on the other list that wish to garden 
organically??  I am so new at gardening that I don't want to do it 
wrong. Debbie
