hen, a conversation with Sarah Elton, bestselling author of Locavore. We'll talk about how things have changed since her award winning book was released a few years ago and whether Canadians have heard the message of sustainability and eating locally.. Just think - all that from a pink cookie (tune in tomorrow to find out what an innocent looking cookie started!) www.thelocavore.ca
Also, we'll check in with Crystal Godfrey (https://www.facebook.com/pages/Secret-Gardens-by-Crystal/313415505362409) from http://secret-garden.ca/to talk about what to put in your pots, windowboxes and planters to refresh them for autumn. Ornamental kales, fall mums, pansies, oh my!
Finally, the author of The Organic Backyard Vineyard, Tom Powers joins me to share how just 100 feet of backyard grape vines can be turned into 175 bottles of wine! I'll have a copy of his new book to give away too! The content is obviously fantastic, but so is the layout and the photos.. I'm loving this book and it will inspire anyone with the easy plans and tips for a productive backyard vineyard.
The show airs live tomorrow from 11 to 1 pm Atlantic time (10 to noon EST) on News 91.9 FM (Moncton), News 88.9 FM (Saint John) and News 95.7 FM (Halifax) or listen live from anywhere at www.news957.com
