Come to think of it, yeah garbage totals do seem to be dropping. Just another consequence of eating locally.
The local food movement does seem to be gaining a good deal of momentum. The Foodlums of UWEC are very active lobbying for local food on campus and spreading the word in general.
I have dreams of creating a community garden, possibly near the downtown next summer. It may be a rental-type lot such as the one in Demler park, or it may be volunteer driven with a CSA aspect and/or to be donated to a local foodbank. Or both!
We picked some grapes along the river the other week and it made for some tart, delicious grape juice.
Peace,
Ben
