The current issue of Catapult is entitled “Your Own Back Yard” and has articles and pictures and music about that little piece of ground that has the potential to connect us back to Eden.
Here is my contribution to the issue. Here are my past contributions to Catapult.
I also recommend Kirstin Vander Giessen-Reitsma’s wonderfully evocative article and photos of time spent in various different types of yard thoroughout her life. And, though I have not read it as yet, there is also an article on composting.
Finally, there is a quirky, Joy Electric style musical piece about imagination set free in the back yard. I like the song, but, like the big donut thingy I got from Quik Trip this morning, I only like this style of music in fairly small doses, or I am liable to get a Sugar Rush.
