REFLECTION QUESTIONWater Eco-friendly GardeningWhat are the most prominent water concerns in your area? Examples include drought, flooding, pollution, access, security, and privatization.
Roberta Iverson 10/18/2019 5:30 AMThe most prominent water concern in my area would be pollution from run-off of fertilized properties. Our local DNR is creating drainage ponds where street water run-off is drained into lakes. The water filters through the soil in the pond before it makes its way into the lake. Native plant materials have been planted at the waters' edge to prevent soil erosion. -
REFLECTION QUESTIONSimplicity De-Clutter My HomeHow can you prevent yourself from accumulating more things in the future?
Roberta Iverson 10/18/2019 5:26 AMI want to be pared down as much as possible for a time in the future where I need to move. I rarely go to traditional stores for clothing or household items (other than groceries!) so have lost the urge to even go browsing at 'the mall'. My daughter and I both appreciate an uncluttered home.
