Natural Alternatives to Roundup Herbicide
- All Down Green Chemistry Herbicide
- Matran 2
- Dig them up with a hoe or shovel - yes, this one requires slightly more work, but on the upside, it's great exercise ;)
- Vinegar (acetic acid) - spray directly on weeds
- Boiling water - pour boiling water on weeds in sidewalk cracks or similar areas. (I tried this and the results were so-so...)
The End of Small Farms, Part II - HR 759 is in committee, worse than HR 875 (the Monsanto bill)
Our food freedom is under attack! HR 759 has eclipsed HR 875 as a danger to America's small farmers. Currently in committee (and more likely to pass), NOW is the time to act to stop this threat to our freedom to buy, grow and eat real foods. A vote is expected by Memorial day.

The End of Small Farms? What you should know (and DO) about HR 875, HR 759, NAIS and Monsanto

America's small farmers are under attack through a series of bills presented under the guise of "food safety." I don't want to lose my freedom to grow, buy and eat real foods. Let's fight for our small farmers who not only need our protection and support, but actual freeing from government intrusion, control and harm.
