A few people have asked about the song. The August Blog for 2007 on www.kudzus.blogspot.com has the words for the song. I would play and sing it Easter...

Having just found out about permaculture, I would love to get some advice on becoming more involved with this exciting grass roots movement. After gardening...
Well!!! When I looked at the photos on the website listed, I thought - that isn't Corn Cockle - it's Lychnis coronaria, what we call Rose Campion, a garden...
Only the line drawing is of Corn Cockle - see my other e-mail - the plant photos are of Lychnis coronaria (Rose Campion). I can't say which plant the pollen...
I've just realised that one of the plant photos actually *is* Corncockle - the one with the paler pink flowers, just two flowers in the photo. Sorry. You can...

There are many resources out there on the subject, actually. It just hasn't taken off with mainstream gardeners. I'd like to recommend Gaia's Garden: A Guide...

Dear Geir, I think that there are many of us into it it, but afraid to talk about it much. Here in the USA they have many laws that prohibit a lot of the...
