Monday, June 27, 2011. Sustainable Backyard Tour a Success. Ed, Lucy and Arlo arriving in sustainable style.

It was fun meeting Madalyn the week before the tour when she visited several of the homes that would be participating in the tour. You can see the photos of Adventure Farm at:.

Adventure Farm: November 2014
http://adventurefarm.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 2, 2014. Recently someone posted a comment in our post, Bye-Bye Lawn. Asking for an update. This gave me the nudge I needed to get back on here and post again, it's been a very long time. I may have been very quiet for a long time, but that sure doesn't mean nothing is happening. Here's a brief update with some photos taken a few weeks ago. Hope you enjoy! I particularly like this picture because you can see a bit of the contrast between our yard and the two closest neighbors' yards.

Saturday, April 14, 2012. Wow, check out the amazing swales at work. I promise I did no cleaning up. This is what it really looked like! Notice all the dogwood flowers are knocked off. It was quite the storm. The rain water wasn't gone either. Check out what is going on at my feet. Water still rushing down the street. It was just pouring out of everyone's yard. Our sidewalk was just wet from the rain with no runoff. When I looked down the sidewalk this is what I saw. Finally I noticed that our other neig...
