It's Corn Gluten Time!!!

Corn Gluten is an excellent, natural way to control (notice I didn't say eliminate) weeds in the lawn. It is usually applied 2 times a year. A September/October application is done to control the early spring weeds that pop up in late February. In February/March another application is done to control the summer weeds. It is in stock now and ready to be applied.

A must see film.

I just watched the film "The Future of Food" on hulu.com and had my mind blown. It is a very disturbing look at the giant industrial farming "machine" and how it has effected our food, farmers, and economy. WARNING!!! It is not for the faint of heart. It will really kinda scare you into thinking harder about the food you eat and where it comes from. It really looks at genetically modified food and what has gone on in that industry.

It also reaffirmed what I have known for years. Monsanto is a very, very bad company. Do not buy anything from them, which will take some research. They have their claws in a lot of aspects of our lives.
