Root Remedies – Benefits of Kava
Kava is native to the islands of the South Pacific and is a member of the pepper family. The roots of the kava plant contain compounds called kavalactones which are responsible for many of kava’s beneficial effects. Pacific cultures traditionally use the kava drink during rituals and social gatherings. They have used kava in ceremonies to bring about a state of relaxation.

Whole Food Nut Gardening – New Garden!
This was my first organic, raised garden bed and compost bin. There are many benefits to having a raised bed such as: reduced back strain, better water rentention, more growing space, warmer soil earlier in the season, less soil erosion and better drainage. Raised beds warm up more quickly in the spring and drain better, allowing for a longer growing season and better growing conditions.
Landfill, Compost & Gardening
Adding compost to your garden helps to enrich the soil with nutrients for plant growth. Compost bacteria break down organics into plant available nutrients. The bacteria, fungi, insects and worms support healthy plant growth and who doesn't want that?!
