Why We Do This
Ben O Kjelshus the Spirit of Food Not Lawns in KC
Ben sent Toby and I this email exchange from one of the students in the current class…
“I am enrolled in your “Food Not Lawns” class on Wednesday evenings and absolutely loved the first session. I am wondering if my husband might be able to pay the $16.00 and join us for the remaining 3 sessions? He would not be able to attend the workshop on Saturday, as he is taking a class in laying flagstone, but would be free for our remaining 3 Wednesday evenings.
Thank you so much, this class is amazing,
… I came to the class to learn more about gardening and after the first session came away with a sense of urgency to not waste money and time cultivating a lawn that is basically useless. I came away with a sense of urgency to conserve and better use the land around my home and to strive to grow better food to feed my family. I can’t tell you what a wakeup call it was for me. I thought it would be learning how to better enjoy my hobby of gardening but I feel it’s much more important that a hobby now, it’s a responsibility, a pleasure and an honor to be a better steward of what’s been given to me.
