   GrowingHope's Blurbs
About me:
we're a nonprof in ypsi made up of passionate and energetic folks who believe what begins with sowing a seed in the soil can change the world... our mission is to help people improve their lives and communities through gardening, and we work to build capacity so that people can provide for themselves... whether growing food or flowers or families, we think organic gardening, and gardening in school & community settings, can grow hope. our website is www.growinghope.net...
Who I'd like to meet:
like-minded people and volunteers and donors and bands who want to play benefit concerts and fellow gardeners and community organizers and just generally people who believe positive change is possible. (oh, and a probono accountant and attorney would be good, too)

Watch our environmental movie featuring Captain Ozone!

Our movie is offbeat, witty and full of inspiration. It will teach you how to become an environmental activist in ways you’ve never imagined before. This unique film raised some eyebrows among environmental groups and is guaranteed to tighten your wig!

To watch our movie in streaming video, just go to Captain Ozone’s profile where you’ll see it posted under “Captain Ozone’s Blurbs”.

If you would like to post this movie onto your own profile, simply go to

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8597011024457745958&q=captain+ozone&hl=en

and click the blue button that says “Email – Embed” and then click “Embed HTML”. Copy and paste the HTML shown to embed the movie onto your profile.

Have a Happy!

HELLO GrowingHope ... Wish all this autumn and fall stuff were honestly true ... but I went from Kentucky to Southern Georgia last weekend and it's a drought reaction ... not really a beautiful autumn and fall as we know and remember it from past years ...

Ohhh ... and if you have room in your yard go to your local nursery and plant a tree this week or this weekend. WHY? A 32 ft tall Ash tree can provide 260 Lbs of oxygen a year.
Two trees are enough to supply the oxygen for each person every year.
Have a great week!

I found this old photograph; taken back when I use to play at the Fata Morgana Jazz Club in London. It was the night the glorious Lady Day sat in with us to sing, “Fine and Mellow” (my favorite song of hers of all time!) I don't want to hear anyone bad-mouthing muggles, Billie Holiday had more magic in her voice than most Dark Wizards I know will ever have in their entire souls.






I just wanted to share this with you. Thanks for the support. Cheers!
