I thought this Google Earth view of our vegetable garden labyrinth was pretty cool. Our own little mysterious suburban crop-circle.
Go here to see the start of the labyrinth from awhile back. The end result of the first year's garden is featured on the cover of the book.
I was also stoked to see this view of the Pumpkin Patch Community Garden. It looks like an earthy patchwork quilt.
Go here to see the tranformation of an empty lot into the community garden.
That's the pod prints off an alien spacecraft - you can't fool the ones who *know the truth*.

Joel Salatin in his latest boo, "Folks, This Ain't Normal",says if everyone in urban areas grew a garden like this and learned to cook ; Many of our society's problems would disappear. i.e. Children learning to work by helping out, More Nutrition awareness and better health, less polution, lower energy needs as everything we eat wouldn't have to travel on highways an average of over 1500 miles, less highway congestion, less refrigeration, even less drives to the supermarket big box stores. Less government regulation of "food safety" and many other things like illegal farm worker immigrants, D.O.T. Inspectors, Tax Collectors, etc.
I've often thought that man's start in a "Garden of Eden" was God's real intent for us; to bad we keep getting further and further away from his intention for us. I'm sure you are on the right track and must know food you grow and prepare yourself to eat at home and share with others has that spiritual sense about it far more than the stuff trucked in from far away after being processed for microwave cooking in some factory with many questionable additives such as corn syrup, high salt, artificial flavors, etc.
