Sometimes computers can waste garden time, and I am not talking about the kind of waste that can be composted. I was trying to send an email about Peacefest today to a large number of persons and had major computer problems, saving it as a draft, finding the email address that was stopping it, and getting error messages. My stubborn attitude kept me at the computer until I had solved most of the problem. Finally I managed to send it out to different grouping of persons; some may have got it more than once and some that I intended to send it to probably never got it. In the meanwhile, the nice summer afternoon disappeared into time to make dinner, and I did not work in the garden. I still do not know the source of my problems and probably will never know. But I do know that the time spent on that email is non sustainable. With preparing for the Fall Festival at the Urban Ecology Center this weekend and Peacefest this Sunday, all I can hope that this nice weather continues until next week. The GP box inside is half planted and most of the soil for the bulbs is ready but there is always more to do in the garden, a place where work, unlike work on the peacefest email, is sustainable.

But not all work on the computer is non-sustainable. Hopefully these daily postings will help give new life to more Growing Renewable Affordable Food G.R.A.F.. I may not know this for sure but believe it. I am a computer consumer as well as a sustainable gardener.
