Cornelia's Comments

Thanks for the hello! Glad you enjoy the blog. I will get this place figured out yet! :)

Thanks for the welcome! Still finding my way around here. L)

Thanks for the welcome, Cornelia! My profile photo is butterlies of some sort. Sadly, I didn't take the photo, so I'm not exactly sure. Hopefully, I'll be able to get some stuff done on my page soon. Seeing yours has inspired me!

Hi Cornelia!! Thanks for the welcome :) As soon as I have time this week, I'll do more on here. I am so excited to be a part of this community. I am taking a class here at our Peace and Justice Center called G.O.T. Power (Grassroots Organizer Training). So I gotta get outta here for now. See you around :)

I sure hope so! Crazy times - my son is about to graduate high school, so a lot going on. If we go, I'll look you up!

Hi Cornelia,
The urns are made out of clay pottery. They do have holes on the bottom of them. But some people say you still need to put some sort of liner inside of them with holes? Is that true? Or can't I just place the soil in the urn seeing there is a hole on the bottom? What do you think?

I'm about to start working with http://emrousa.com/ by adding a bokashi element to my composting workshops. I try to do everything from scratch, but want to appeal to a market with large quantities of compostables (e.g. schools). My first attempt was with using the liquid from strained yogurt. I let it ferment, soaked sheets of newspaper in the liquid, sealed the newspaper in a plastic bag to let that ferment, turned my back and had moldy newspaper! I never did get to the rotting-in-a-bucket stage. Let me know your results if you give it a try!

Thanks Cornelia - YES! Farm City was SO good and SO inspiring!!

Wow! Cornelia, thank you so much for leaving me a comment. I feel loved! I tell you what. I will take some pictures of the greenhouse now and when it's finished. I may be an octogenarian by then, but I'll do it. In the meantime, I'll tell you what I've been up to. It seems Texas is having a bumper crop of kittens this year, both feral and orphaned. So, I am fostering babies. I have 4 at the moment. Two of them just opened their eyes. They are so cute when they nurse. The little boy, an orange tabby, is such a great eater that I've dubbed him, "pumpkin", for his fat little belly. I'll have to get you some pictures.

Hey Cornelia, thanks for the comment! It drew me back to the site after a few weeks of distraction. I'm really excited to learn and read what everyone else on here is up to. I'm not affiliated with the site I posted, but it's in line with a lot of the art styles my friends and I enjoy. Glad you liked it!

Thanks!! This site is really fun and informative!

Thank you so much! I love you site! We are currently "growing" a co-op in our area and this will be such a blessing to all of our families! I can't wait to add some info and pics to show everyone what we are up too.........we are totally commited to the "homegrown" way of life!!!

I'm able to make the trip up to SF. I just need to know all the details so I can plan it. When's the best time and way to reach you? Thanks! Rosanita

Thanks. It's a great site and a great resourse. Keep it up.

Hi Cornelia, nice to *meet* you! I'm at McMath garden on Pemberton St. Where is Squirrel Brand garden? Thanks for your comment... I'm slowly getting up to speed on all things blog-related. Love your profile picture! Seriously cute!

Thanks for letting me know! I totally didn't see it. I will make sure to cross post. I love this website.

Thanks for the tip, Cornelia! I added the "So Sweet" video to the thread. :-)
