Healthy soil and sustainable growing

[Harvey Ussery <boxwood@nelsoncable.com>]

Hi All,

I will be presenting at the Pennsylvania Association for Sustainable 
Agriculture annual conference in State College this year. Check
      http://www.pasafarming.org/conference2008/
for more information about the 3-day conference.

On Thursday, Feb 7, I will take part in the all-day track "Surviving in 
the 21st Century: The New Victory Garden," which will follow up on James 
Howard Kunstler's presentation last year on peak oil and its 
consequences, especially for food security. The track will attempt to 
address the needs of people who took JHK's words to heart, and are now 
asking, "Okay, I'm convinced I need to put serious effort into learning 
how to produce more of my own food--how do I get started?"

I'll take part in the Livestock half of the track (there will be a 
Vegetable half as well), presenting "Getting Off on the Right Foot with 
Livestock" and "Starting with Poultry."

If you plan to attend the PASA conference, by all means look me up and 
let's say hello. (After the Thursday presentations, I will remain for 
the rest of the conference on Friday and Saturday.)
