Welcome

This is the chronicle of our journey through the 21st century and our exploration and implementation of a greener lifestyle for our family. We are a family of four humans in suburban St Louis, Missouri, USA. We have always been Earth-conscious but have become even more aware recently of all of the things we can be doing to not only leave a smaller carbon footprint behind but to also increase our sustainable use of our land and resources to work and live in harmony with the earth and so have decided to embark on this journey to change our lives in many of those ways.

As you can see, spring has sprung around these parts!  Everything we planted is blooming or sprouting or growing and some things we weren't even expecting(japanese climbing cucumbers!!!!) .  The plants are all looking wonderful and I can't help but think that a mild winter actually helped us out quite a bit! 

Tomorrow we will actually do our first spring plantings outside and a new year of gardening begins.

We hope you join us as we explore our edible lawn!


PS...did ya see how the winter grains have grown?!?!?!  Looking good!!! :)
