My brother and I are making a Victory Garden. First time in decades my family has done this. At least we'll have something healthy this summer. Extra food will go to people in need.

Yes... a couple of weeks ago I had a melt down when management made massive org changes. As if they're gearing up for a reduction in force. As the primary breadwinner in the house, I'm worried.

Grow food, don't give 'em your money! Start with window herbs, start with a field, start with a pot of lettuce outside of your apartment door. Just try it.
