We catch up with Stacy Citron now that she's on her own about what's happening in her world…how her program is going, what's easy, what's hard, what still needs work.
For some inspiration, laughs, and insight, be sure to catch our interview from earlier today.
Stacy, it's always a pleasure, thanks so much for everything you do for your fellow Cysters!
This week's radio guest, Urban Farmer Greg Peterson, opened my eyes to how similar the processes of growing a healthy garden and growing a healthy body can be!
If you're intrested in learning more about sustainable living, gardening for beginners, even raising tilapia--yes--tilapia--on your patio--you won't want to miss this interview!
As for me, I'm passing on the tilapia for now…but I am going to try planting my tomatoes at a different time of year to see if my thumb is greener than I've been thinking.
Greg's website is http://www.urbanfarm.org/, and it's packed with great resources including one I am always asked about, a"which fruits and vegetables are in season?" chart.
Here are Greg's titles from amazon.com, which I promised I would post for anyone who would like more reading.
Thanks Greg! I'll think of you every time I make fresh bruschetta from my own patio from now on!
