yea! I wish my parents were as influenced by my Adamah experiences. My father still refuses to go on the hazon ride with me for fear he’ll “be recruited into the cult.” urgh.

I’ll gladly post some lacto-fermentation recipes on this website in the near future. I plan to do some recreational pickling in Israel so I’ll keep you posted.

Jeff, I’m still using up your beets and daikon radishes (my housemate put some into a stirfry last night and they were delicious), though the tomatoes became a delicious sauce long ago. This blog is great; I’m very impressed. Might it be possible at some point for you to post a recipe for pickling (aka “lacto-fermentation”)?

yes, Jeffrey, it is often a two - way street, this parenting stuff. We too, out here in Vancouver BC, have been growing a few veggies in the backyard, eat apple & pear desserts from the trees we planted years ago, and have joined a CSA this year as well. We’ve become emissaries for the messages of Hazon, and Adamah, switching to one car and two bicycles for getting around, and will be promoting at our shul to start a Tuv Ha’Aretz CSA next spring. Like in Big Yellow Taxi, written when I was in high school, “give me bugs on my apples, throw away the DDT…….” Thanks for inspiring all of us parents with your energy and committment to help the planet, one pickle at a time!
