Power of Spirit 7-1-2018

We have a problem. Our fast paced lifestyle with so many topics and subjects that need our attention and help, focusing on things greater than our personal life can feel overreached ..

From the coral reef, and rainforests to the very eco system of bugs and soil in our backyard.

Although we are tied to the strings of doubt, failure, mortality., We have been granted the chance to be a part of a team of motivated woman who want to better this world. We can inspire and remind the people in our community of all the amazing things we can do to change the world for the better

We can be the spirit of the community that bridges the mind of information with the body of action.

We are of the information age, and near past it..

We have the ability to know many great things. Great things like what we do has an impact, and that every act can be measured.

The smallest things can lead to the largest outcome.

You are here 1. because you are smart.

You are smart in knowing that the world needs true leaders. We as neighbors need each other. Beauty comes in change. Beauty comes in doing the right thing. You are smart in that you don’t have to see the trash to know the impact on the ocean, land, and air.

You are here 2. because you are passionate.

You are passionate about the impact on the planet, and how small things like straws, plastic bags, and the things we buy on a daily basis, create our future tomorrow. You have experience in sharing your passion and seeing the positive effect you can have on the people around you.

You are here 3. because you are committed. In some way, you are committed in educating, acting and inspiring those around us to care and change for the better.

We have the mind to know that we can do better.

Our body can be weak in action if we do not hold the spirit of love and care to do better.

Bella Napoli / Green Business Meeting 5-8-2018

I was present for a green business meeting hosted by BTG this Tuesday. The focus was food waste and the ways to improve. Bella Napoli is a family restaurant that thrives off of the threads of relationships it has weaved throughout the years. Bella Napoli is more than a conversation or one plate of pasta. It is a moment we share together that gets us through the lesser days. Behind these moments are the details of the work place. Making lists, ordering products, organizing, prepping, serving, and of course loving. There is however more to our story, and that story continues in our trash bins. As much as a passing smile can carry itself through the day, so too does our trash carry itself way beyond our bins. Food waste is one of our beautiful problems. Sending food to the landfill creates methane. Creating a conversation about composting the wasted, and donating the left overs is not only something we can benefit from as a family who cares about their ho...

Chemicals & plastics 4-19-2018

Carbon Storage sinks trees soil 1% leaves 40% trunks/branches 45% soil/organic matter 13% roots 1%debris Total soil carbon ecosystem storage around 80tons /acre Plants grow by making sugar(carbohydrates) from carbon dioxide (co2+h20)- sharing theses sugars with soil microbes who in exchange feed the plant. Sugars- fed to mycorrhizal fungi which give minerals Fungi attach to roots to exchange in a symbiotic relationship. The relationship builds better soil with aggregates to maintain moisture by a sticky protein called glomain(soil carbon) Feeding bacteria colonies whose enzymes break soil into nutrients.` Plastic is made from PETROLEUM, derived from petroleum > these raw finite materials come from a “Cracking process”- breaking hydrocarbons- oil- a carbon rich material. Polymers are made up of carbon hydrogen (links of monomers) 2015. 9.1 billion tons ^ of plastic have been produced since 1950. Those are still in our environmen...

My Landscaping 5-8-2018

I have landscaped for over 10 years ranging from residential to commercial. I have worked heavy machinery to weeding of yards. I have worked in teams to plant thousands of mature plants, irrigation, 10 foot trees, weed barrier, mulch. I have worked by myself, bare hands, leveling a foot of dirt, loading/unloading trucks with hundreds of pounds of rock, dirt, mulch, plants. I am effective in my time. I am educated in what stays and what goes. I know the details in spacing, depth, light, water, nutrition. I not only plant with power, i plant with love. I personally speak to the flowers and the worms and I tell them thank you. My belief is not in a perfect yard but a healthy yard. I believe in native plants and a couple of weeds, I support and specialize in butterfly gardens, rain gardens, and of course gardens. I love beautiscaping but I love even more educating on topics of soil health, native plants, and yards that support eco systems vs work against th...
