to all 2 or 3 of you

traffic is down lately. i feel a little disgruntled about it too. blogging without the help of jfw's sidebar is a little more lonely. seriously. anyone out there?

so i've written the first draft of a stellar book review and i've got some "feelers" out to figure out how to get it picked up. if things are going too slowly or not going at all, i think i'm just going to be brazen enough to email some editors and tell them that i've got reviews and, since they are in the review business, at least in part, we should get together.

doesn't this earthbound organic/natural selection foods thing bug you a bit? i did a little snooping around and it seems to me that natural selection foods is the packaging arm of earthbound and they also package for all kinds of other folks - many of whom are not organic. here are my questions: are all the greens sold under the earthbound label produced on the earthbound farm? if not, why is there no mention of that on the label or on the company (FARM!) website? are the other greens packaged by natural selection produced on earthbound acreage (meaning that the farm is not completely organic)? finally, what, if any, work is done to insure that organic greens are not processed with conventional greens or, for that matter, that the organic greens remain free of pesticide and other chemical residues introduced into the packaging facility by the conventional greens?

it's weekends like this that make me happy for community supported agriculture even if I am up to my ears in sweet corn and carrots.
