Their jobs have been privatized, their wages and benefits cut, and they are intimated from unionizing. Details below. Please come out if you can, and bring a friend. thanks, ellen RALLY TO SUPP...

second Danielle's comments.
The only question is - would others make the interpretation that Danielle did-

Hi. It is logical to think this forum would be a good place to post that question- but this board is very inactive. I wonder if anyone has an interest in compiling a list of referrals - of medical people, alternative practitioners, etc. - maybe in the newsletter? Or posting the question on the bulle...

Roxanne,
Please let me know if this group gets going.
I've heard that deep breathing is good for Lyme sufferers, that it helps to get more oxygen in the body.
I'd be happy to come and share some deep breathing exercises from Kundalini Yoga.

John, You are lucky. I got rid of my Lyme about 99% using Stephen Buhner's herbal protocol, described in his book, "Healing Lyme". I recommend anyone who has Lyme get the book ( a small inexpensive paperback). Marilynn has suggested I write about the book, and my experience, for the newsle...

Last night I enjoyed an evening at Elijah’s Promise Farm to Food Program, and it occurred to me that perhaps many co-opers do not know about this wonderful monthly event. Elijah’s Promise is...More Than A Soup Kitchen Since Elijah's Promise began in 1989, they have been helping low-income people in ...

I'm not completely enamoured of the idea. I can see the convenience factor. And I certainly am in favor of anything aiding organic and local farmers to sell more. But one hesitation - one thing about the farmer's market, eg the one in Highland Park which starts in a couple of weeks - is the human fa...

Danielle,
I think you have to do some investigative reporting and let us know what is the truth. lol.

I'm totally confused.
One says it IS funded by a pro-meat group, another says it isn't.

Hello,
this BB is pretty quiet.
You might want to speak to a manager at the Co-op about your question.
Just go in and ask. A manager is always available.
Also, opportunities are posted at the Co-op

good luck, and welcome,

picture: m My Cup Plant is 5 feet tall. It is native to NJ and perennial. It is a great attractor of bees and butterflies. If anyone wants it, they will have to get it out of the ground, cuz I can't. Janet - I'd love to see this in your yard - I think you have a big space, right? This needs a big sp...

not entirely too late - I've got some extras I'm going to bring when next I come to the Coop.

hi Janet, Actually within hours of my 'seeds available' posting - here and elsewhere, they were all taken. However, if anyone does not claim theirs, I will give them to you. ellen sorry, I should have made clear that I was posting the list in a couple of places, and that speed was of the essence!

Hi Janet and all, here is the list (a long one!) I have offered them in a couple of places, so not everything may be available when you ask, but as you can see, a lot will. I can't wait til Spring to get my hands in the dirt so I have already sown several. My method - see wintersown.org It is a wond...

Hi,
I have lots of extra seeds - if you are interested lmk, and I will post a list.
May have seedlings too.

I was in my 40's when I had my 1st sinus infection. I never got them until I returned to NJ after living in Texas. Not sure what that has to do with it, except both are dirty places! Until my first sinus infection I never understood how awful they are. I used to think they were like a cold. omg, I a...

Anybody know any locally? I used to practice medical qi gong, a student group at rutgers, and I've lost how to get hold of them. Don't know if they're still on. The other nite, I took a one-time class at East Brun libe, and while I was bored during it, afterwards I slept so well. I'd like to find a ...
