That's a big goal of mine, to try and grow as much of my own food as possible

I felt strong around and always been around people who have very strong environmental convictions.

People have to know that there are options available to us today. There is another way, and it is practical and applicable now.

I've been using the same editor, thankfully, she's been sticking with me, but I've been doing it full-on guerilla style... I haven't gotten any public sponsor or anything, because I don't want to seem like I'm trying to sell any particular thing.

I really struggle with that feeling of helplessness. That's why I really try to get my blogs, and even myself, to point to the positive and look at all the inspiring things that are happening.

I've never been good in the financial and business arenas. I handle the creative side of things.

It's not necessary to go far and wide. I mean, you can really find exciting and inspiring things within your hometown.
