I spent the first decade or so of my life back and forth from the hospital and got sick very easily. I had breathing problems, diseases, skin conditions, infections, etc. I was taken from public school and my mom decided to stop giving me vaccines, the preservatives and unnecessary crap were...

And by the way - even large groups and wealthy individuals have failed in their efforts to sue Monsanto and their smaller affiliates. Monsanto is a big and extremely wealthy company that won't hesitate to knock down any that oppose them - they've got the money to cover their back ends in any...

No, I don't have any scientific resources at the moment. In the meantime you should look at your own source. From what I can see it was written by one Monsanto worker - and possibly a minor worker at that. It is a blog, most credible scholarly writing comes in the form of scientific journals...

:welcome Marciaminer! What's the area like where your fruit trees are planted? On top of a hill, south-facing slope, at the bottom of a hill? I think that planting on a south-facing slope is usually the recommended way to do it, but you'd want to plant on top of a hill to avoid frost. I'm not...

The benefits of Capitalism.

About $7.00 is an insane price for eggs. It is kind of hard for the small (especially organic) farmers to sell through convenience stores like that due to the larger farmers being dominate in that area, so that might account for the price. They should really be selling those eggs at a more local...

OH, OK! I can't believe that I didn't get that sooner. :p

There is a huge difference between sharing genetic material with other organisms and injecting frog DNA into tomatoes. You can thank evolution and the thousands upon thousands of years that life has existed on earth for the shared genetic material.

Well it's a crappy way to go - but you can fill a bucket up halfway with water and float bird seed on top. They find the seed, try to get at it, fall in and drown.

Using multiple things at once could only help. Not all things work for everybody. You can also make a homemade pepper spray, the hotter the peppers the better. Maybe even mix some predator urine in with the pepper spray. Wormwood would be another plant to consider. Your cats don't mind lavender?

Cats aren't supposed to like lavender. That would be a whole lot of lavender to plant though.

I second that.

We've had a gander do that before, same scenario and I don't get it either. I kind of think that they get lonely when the females are busy sitting on the eggs. I don't mix well with geese either, although I do like them. Too noisy with my heightened sense of hearing, hardpan the soil, and...

I know, I just wanted to distinguish myself from that group. I had a good idea of why you chose to use Disneyfy, it's actually a really good word to use in the case - still made me cringe, never did like Disney movies. Geese are incredibly noisy (is that what you meant seed?) and I find their...

I'm thinking Elecampe then. :) Medicinal introduced from Europe, no showy flowers or anything. Growing in your flowers like that, you're going to want out of there. If I do happen to be right, and you are interested in medicinals - there's probably more of those plants growing somewhere nearby...

Did it have a yellow, dandelion-like flower? How tall is that old flower stalk and about how wide the clump? It reminds me of Elecampe but I don't think that's it, different growth pattern. First year plant or in same/similar family maybe?

No fruit or nut trees or perrenial vegetables but do manage to get about %60 of my families vegetable needs accounted for with occasional help. I'll occasionally bike bags of vegetables to good friends when we get a surplus of a certain vegi.

Then they're poachers then, I'll alert the game warden the next time I come across a body. I would assume that laws like that are pretty hard to enforce. I'm starting to think that I live a concentrated population of crazy, irresponsible rednecks - which is probably true. Deer being as...

I was typing in a hurry, so worded it wrong. No fawns during the hunting season? I've seen a few groups pass through during early bow season, usually including a buck and doe. You can't say that all hunters do that - there are plenty out there that do cut their heads off and leave the rest to...

With how tough goose tends to be that sounds surprising. I guess prepared in the right way it might be good - soaked in lime juice or maybe cooked with papaya or pineapple to tenderize it.
