Big Green Summer
Half a picture-perfect weekend is better than none at all. Many gardeners undoubtedly took advantage of this weekend's better half to work in their yards and gardens.
About 15 hardy souls spent the whole weekend at an urban permaculture workshop hosted by Frank Cicela at his Cedar Rapids home. Instructors from Big Green Summer in Fairfield taught about composting and other aspects of the sustainable system. In light of record crude oil prices and global food shortages, the workshop is one way Cicela hoped to make a difference at the local level.
