From Robin Saenger:
Greetings!

The idea is to setup a section with booths of local green businesses or organizations. A great deal of talk among the students is the lack of jobs/ direction of economy.

It would be very short and sweet- There is an hour an… Continue

Move your Money - Everyone's new year agenda to stop the banks



If you don't support the banker bailouts and the un-fair approach that the Federal government is pursuing one consumer option is community banks. These local banks are more likely to create a loan as they were less risky during this recession. Their money stays within the local community supplying more loans for businesses to utilize.

I've been utilizing Patriot Bank Florida for this organizations banking… Continue

Do you have any tips on how to find a good source of water like rain barrels or maybe hydroponics. I have an idea for each method but have not figured a good way to initiate either. Thanks
