Hello 2010! Bring on the Water Harvesting!

WMG Water Harvesting Certification – Phoenix Course Offered in Spring 2010. Applications are due Feb 5th. Certication-PHX-Spring2010_Application.doc

Watershed Management Group (WMG) is pleased to announce the first Water Harvesting Certification course to be held in Phoenix starting in March 2010.
WMG is partnering with Phoenix-based non-profit Arizona Home Grown Solutions to plan and promote the Phoenix Certification course.

WMG’s Water Harvesting Certification is the only such program in the nation. The Certification program is a hands-on training course in water harvesting design and implementation, and certification is earned by passing an exam at the end of the program. Our goal is to effectively transfer water harvesting knowledge to those who can teach these practices and utilize them in their professions. The aim of the certification program is to provide the highest quality training in integrative water harvesting offered in the nation as well as create a standard benchmark to measure proficiency in these topics.

Bucket Potatoes

I don’t know why because they are so good when they are young. Young, new, or baby potatoes – they are so tasty! I will grow several potato varieties this year and see how it works out.
