POPSTires Recycled into Mulch with Rubberecycle "Cash for Clunkers" helped the environment by getting older cars off the road. It also created a surplus of tires that could end up in landfills. Rubberecycle hopes to recycle those tires and turn them into mulch products that can be used for playgrounds and landscaping.

POPSThe $200 White House Vegetable Garden The Obamas are planting a vegetable garden on the White House lawn in an effort to publicize healthy eating. The seeds and mulch will cost $200 and they'll be able to harvest spinach, chard, collards and cilantro, among other things. Do you think this will educate the public about more healthful options or go largely unnoticed?

POPSToxic Beauties Young children, pets or any people who will not listen should be prevented from eating Surprise Lilies. This common sense measure will keep them safe from plant toxins. Some symptoms include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.

POPSWhat might it look like if weed were legal? More: Some booths have entire plants hanging in them. When you ask for a twenty dollar bag the rather faded looking hippy farmer shrugs, picks up a large machete and hacks off about half of a plant and stuffs it into your burlap shopping bag, spilling weed everywhere. He or she starts to ask "Is that enough... no, wait..." and then also puts a large brownie in your bag and then, with a large metal scoop, shovels up about a cupful of what looks like beige sand or salt, drops it in a baggy and also puts that in your bag. "A little table kief. Good for cooking or sprinkling on spliffs! Have a great weekend!" Gee, and here I was at the farmer's market just this morning. No sign of those vendors, unfortunately. ;-)

POPSA Second Life Woods by Wendell Berry I part the out thrusting branches and come in beneath the blessed and the blessing trees. Though I am silent there is singing around me. Though I am dark there is vision around me. Though I am heavy there is flight around me.

POPSTrees to be Mulched Awesome move by the city of Buffalo! Too bad mulch won't be available to any city resident that want it. They should also give information about how much the city is reducing our carbon footprint by composting/ mulching trees. I hope that Lardon Construction is doing the service for free. If the city website had links to both Lardon and Grassroots gardens that would be super cool, but perhaps too much to hope for.

POPSThe Three Sisters of Life Planting these vegetables together benefits both the plants and people. The corn stalks provide a pole for the beans to climb. The beans help stabilize the corn from wind, and beans fix nitrogen on their roots, improving the quality of the soil. Squash vines act as mulch, shading and smothering weeds, and help keep the soil cool and moist. All three were turned back into the soil to add organic matter, improving its fertility and structure. The three eaten together supply nearly all nutritional requirements a body needs. "When the oak leaves grow to the size of a squirrel’s ear – then it’s time to plant."
