Planet Earth is being sterilized by the way we eat. Our staple foods are made from annual crops (grains, corn, soy, rice, etc.) that are killing ecosystems everywhere. A course in “restorative agriculture” and an ongoing “hands-on” form of perennial fooding is being offered. You are invited to participate. Please call 603-776-7776 for more information.
