Podcasts - Good News: The Lemon Lady
In this installment of Good News, KGO's Bret Burkhart tells us about Anna Chan, who gathered fruit from neighborhood trees that would've otherwise ended up in the green bin, and took it to very grateful food banks around the Bay Area. You might say her plan came to fruition!

Glad to see this going as a resource.
ReplyDeleteYou might also list some source references to growing vegetables.
Thanks Edi. You are the very first post! Please read my entry below titled: FREE SEED CATALOGS.

I have ordered all of them, and have dozens I read on a daily basis. The websites are full of information...very educational and FUN READING!
Greetings Ana: I just saw your comment on Tangobaby's blog. I love those who raise awareness for the less fortunate. I just blogged about our local Walk For Hunger in preparation for "Conscious Friday". Thought I'd share the link: http://momentarysolace.blogspot.com/2009/04/conscious-friday-walk-for-hunger.html
ReplyDeleteJust dropped you a note on your last post, we should also start a blog resource list for the various type of information! Yours for gardening, ours for city ordinances (we would really rather have yours:), Cowellian's since he's done a great job and he is really funny, and Mister Writer for the political views. AND of course the Mayor for the latest news! Good luck!
