Anyone who can should cultivate a small garden in their back yard, if for no other reason than to better appreciate the effort and land required to grow all of the produce you see in your local grocery store. It is a staggering revelation.
I've been doing that since I was 19....I'm 57 now. I agree with you.

I would also suggest that everyone buy at least a couple of large plastic barrels for storing water. This is a wonderful time of year to collect it from your gutters and other runoff locations.
Be careful with that. It's illegal in certain states. No, I'm not kidding. Two seconds and Google and you'll be amazed.

And I don't mean "ye olde laws of yesteryear." I mean people being ticketed/fined for doing it within the past year.

I think its illegal in Washington. I remember reading something about a family getting cited for that. Stupid ridiculousness abounds unfortunately. "We own the rain water." Ok...

I hate it for the people, I really do, but they need to revolt.
Yup, time to step up and make the government work for themselves. I'm sick of us dumping cash into various places around the world where it gets wasted / stolen and nothing changes. If the people really want to change things, they have the power - get up and do something about it.
