Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["Jeanne Driese" <jeanne13@earthlink.net>]

All 95 counties in Tennessee have been declared disasters for agrcultural crops so that farmers may apply for loans to start over .  It looks very bad here just from the point of looking at trees, bushes, even weeds that instead of looking a beautiful spring green color are all brown and black.  This June I will be 72 and do not remember ever seeing anything like this before.

This coming week I will be replanting my veggie garden. Not even the peas survived.  So glad I have enough seeds to start over and am thankful we have such a long growing season!
