We all know what happened in Dr. Seuss' The Lorax when the Once-ler devised ways of cutting down Truffula trees for the "Biggering and Biggering" of his manufacturing operation. He "Biggered" to the point where he altered the Lorax's landscape with polluted water, polluted air, and a sunless panorama of Truffula stumps.
"I speak for the trees, for the trees have no tongues." Dr. Seuss
Is there someone in your life you can thank for not making the Lorax's reality your own? Organic gardeners use their big green thumbs to stand against ecological destruction. Just by gardening organically without harmful chemicals, they raise environmental awareness that helps create and maintain healthy ecosystems. Good for the body. Good for the planet.
"What can be more valuable now than a small garden, free of synthetic fertilizers and pesticide poisons, yielding food that tastes as good as the vegetables and fruits we were able to buy in markets years ago? Valuable not only to the body but to the spirit." Robert Rodale, CEO Rodale
