    I couldn't find any information saying that anyone has a lack of access to water in Colorado, but if Arizona, California, Nevada and Colorado usage went up by 11% which is suspected to happen by 2037, the Front Range could lose 97% of our water!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Yikes!!!!!!!!!
  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Food Compost Food Waste
    New to composting? Be sure to check out the action resource links to learn tips and more about it. As you transition from throwing food away to composting, what do you notice about how much you are tossing? How will you use your compost once it is ready?

    I'll be using it to put around the vegetables about a month after they are planted--actually I will look up the best time to spread it.  It's not yet ready.
