Soo.... The Green Update
August 8th 2007 22:11
I didn't really go on that trip. I was hoping to, but I've been waking up late. Too late for the trip to really be worth it. That's the disadvantage of living in the city. If you want to go anywhere with more trees, you have to get up early in the morning to head out.
I've been working hard on my other blog, Fictional Worlds. I've also been working on various projects, and I've just begun Founding Of Moonshadow, a book which will probably take me a week to write because it's short. That one will probably be self-published, since the format is pretty anti-traditional.
I've been poking around on various eco-friendly websites. I'm very much a green sort of person. I am the ultimate thirteen year old activist, short of being vegan. I'm mostly vegetarian, I eat fish on rare occasions and I eat cheese. I really want to start-and successfully grow-my own little herb garden.
Which is what makes Really Long Link so awesome. That's about $200 dollars for a garden, but...
The garden uses strange technology to provide you with harvest in about four weeks, and four or five weeks of said harvest, using its seed packets. The garden itself is $150 or thereabouts (USD), and the seed packets are about $20 USD.
Can I say how awesome this is? Growing herbs in an apartment has never been easier, apparently. I can't help but wish I had one. Add this to the list of things to beg my mother for.
I'm also going to try and beg $10 out of my mother and go to a farmer's market. Lots of those in Toronto here, and quite a number of them are organic. It'll get me out of the house, and most of them are held in parks. Let's just pray for good weather. I'm hoping one of them will be during my mother's work hours, but I doubt it. Which means she might try to come along too. -.-
Anyway... there's probably going to be a fair bit of environment stuff around here for a while.
