About me

Introduction	I love to cook and try new recipes. Our family made a decision a couple of years ago to try to eat local and organic. Living in a rural area, we knew that 100% would be difficult. We strive for an 80/20 balance - some weeks are more, some are less. Since our growing season is only about 3 months long, we have extended it by using hydroponic gardening in our basement. This allows us fresh lettuce, tomatoes, peppers and other produce through the winter.
