  • Hi Peggy, good to meet you yesterday on the silly mtn walk, very enjoyable and informative. Your photos are great!

  • Peggy, your fermented Purslane was scrumptious, would you share the recipe?

  • Peggy, It was a fun evening!

    Amazing food, games and conversation with people who respect the Earth and appreciate the goodies that Nature offers ... What a treat!

    Tank you and I am looking forward to the next one. :-)

  • Thanks for finding me, Peggy! I'd definitely like to chat with you about fermenting produce; I'm eager to learn!

  • One thing I have discovered about Moringa trees is that they like to dry out between waterings. I think they are suseptible to root rot.

     I lost a couple of small trees early on this summer because I started them in pots and I think they went into shock when I transplanted them into the yard. I currently have 8 of them that I planted this summer and they are doing well. I have been 'topping them' regularly to make them more bushy. I'm eating the leaves or drying them to use later.

    Now I just hope they make it through the winter! Then I might actually get some flowers and seeds :) I'll be happy to share.

  • Hi Peg...we live very close...I m on 67 av and Cactus
  • thanks for the chard, and thanks for being flexible. That worked out so great for me today! Hope you enjoy the eggs.
  • will need to be a little flexible as I never know how full my schedule is until I get to work in the morning. Usually Fridays end by 12-12:30. Do you have some flexibility in your schedule? If we can work it out I would love to do a trade. My # is 480-292-5971, I can't always answer my phone if I am with a Patient, but leave a message and I will call you back. I also have your number.
  • You are welcome!  Good luck with your solar ovens!
  • Hi, Peg -

    I live at 7th Ave. and Missouri (between Bethany Home and Camelback) - call me if you want more info @ 602-235-9330 (home) or 602-750-0121 (cell) - Thanks!

Q:  How much grains did you use for 1 qt?  How much PP juice would you put in?"

"I'm so glad you came and enjoyed the activities, the food and the conversation.  
And I'm glad you liked the purslane, however it was the only dish that wasn't fermented.  All I did was to put raw purslane in some pickle juice and let it sit in the…"
