Green As You Can Be

posted by jax1215 on Feb 9

The weather in this end of North Carolina has been just awful. Rain, cold, snow, sleet…you get the picture. I’ve done all the green things I can to keep the house warm but still have a horrible power bill. When it’s this cold you just have to wish for Spring.

I found a wonderful blog for our area. (I’m sure every county in every state has a site like this) It’s the county extension office. The blog is www.cherokeecountyextnews.blogspot.com.  I had heard of a class for growing mushrooms and I really wanted to take the class. For only $10 I can learn how to grow mushrooms and they will provide materials for me to grow my own. (I have to bring 4 logs with me) How cool is that????

I noticed on this site a workshop for raising chickens so I signed up for that too. We wanted to start raising chickens last year but had to wait.Now I can be more informed when we actually get started.

Two green things to look forward to this Spring.

Have you started planning your garden yet??? Now’s the time. Get rid of the Winter blues by thinking about Spring green.
