  1. Thinking about seeds…and planting…and green…make me sad. I am plotless for the growing season. My porch gets little to no morning light. Our front windows get the most sun, but even that is not enough to sustain veggies.

    Hrumph.

  2. Oh! That’s too bad! I’ve had luck with container gardening, but we get a lot of light on our back patio.

    Have you seen these — http://www.treehugger.com/files/2006/03/indoor_gardenin.php

    They aren’t cheap, but could allow for a little green growing.

  3. Of course hemp beer comes from Humboldt County. Can’t wait to try it.

    That energy-positive building makes me want to be an architect (again).

  4. I want to know if the beer is gluten-free. Not that I was ever a big beer drinker, but it’s just another thing on the list of foods I can’t have. Sadly, we don’t have a Whole Foods around here.

    Being an architect would be so cool. I think your love of the outdoors would bring a lot to your practice.
