About me:

Welcome to Verda Vivo. My name is Daryl Warner Laux.

Verda Vivo means “green living” in the language of Esperanto, a constructed international language. This site reflects my passion for environmental issues, climate change, conservation, pollution, recycling, organics and ”going green”.

I grew up on a potato farm on Long Island, New York with my two sisters, horses, dogs, and cats. Our neighbors were all family and no one locked their doors. We had our own baseball field, a huge family garden (enough for 5 families) and sold strawberries in the summer when we had too many. We even had our own family business on the farm, Warner Potato Chips. I am a farm girl at heart and believe firmly that we need to take care of our land and resources.

I started this blog in October 2007 because I wanted to keep a record of the things I learned as I researched how to live more “greenly”. I’m far from perfect but keep learning and do the best I can to live sustainably.

I hope you enjoy Verda Vivo. Check out my blogs: Verda Vivo and Verda Vivo Cooks.
