What is Seafood Watch?
"A program of Monterey Bay Aquarium designed to raise consumer awareness about the importance of buying seafood from sustainable sources. We recommend which seafood to buy or avoid, helping consumers to become advocates for environmentally friendly seafood. We're also partners of the Seafood Choices Alliance where, along with other seafood awareness campaigns, we provide seafood purveyors with recommendations on seafood choices."

Travelogue "...we begin a housesitting situation for two weeks before we fly to Amsterdam & Tanzania on Sept. 4." "We awaken in the middle of the night to a series of loud noises above our heads - the sound of cracking wood, creaking, groaning, and the "whoosh" of air being displaced. These are the sounds of a large object falling fast." read more "Our friends are physicians at the reservation hospital and live in a neighborhood of modern adobe houses and grassless lawns..." read more Rich Kurczak - 8/20/2006 edition - Falling Trees & the Hopi Reservation NEW Rich Kurczak - 7/20/2006 edition - Last Days in Cliff, New Mexico Rich Kurczak - 7/09/2006 edition - SW New Mexico Rich Kurczak - 6/23/2006 edition - Yampa River, Green River, Grand Staircase Wilderness

... Help add new subscribers to KnowledgeFarm ...

KnowledgeFarm has issued over 75 newsletters since Bill Katavolos coined the name to reflect his vision of small rural learning centers tucked into the interstitial "left-overs" of circular irrigation fields on the great plains. KF subscribership has remained small and friendly - currently a master list of 33. KnowledgeFarm is a weekly portrait of someone or someplace that seems to be making a difference for the health of the planet mixed with a collection of photographs I take along the way and quotes that I find particularly inspiring. Recently the Travelogue was added as a way to follow Rich Kurczak on his way to Africa and back and this section may grow as others contribute similar adventures.

If you have found the KnowledgeFarm newsletter interesting or thought provoking please take a few minutes and forward this page to some friends.

Thanks for your referrals.
