Sustainable living encompasses a lot of complex issues. But is it so complex to actually improve your own individual way of living?
No. If it were, I’d be too lazy to do it.
I would venture to say that most of North America has some kind of sustainable infrastructure in place these days. Urbanites needn’t fear their lack of available dirt—in fact, you may want to have your soil tested for chemical residues and heavy metals before you try growing anything in it. You just don’t know.

Urgh… Groan… There’s a Monday looming somewhere, full of foggy-brainedness and weekday drudgery. And, worst of all, no live, interactive Marty-and-Bob broadcast till Tuesday. Gasp!
Fear not! My name is Cathi-Lyn Dyck, and I am here to rescue you from Mondays. I’m a freelance writer and editor, and I’m not from your neck of the woods. I can just about guarantee this because there are so very few people in my neck of the woods.
I live in the Canadian prairies, six miles from the Middle of Nowhere. I am a Master Gardener, I’ve been experimenting with the development of a Community Supported Agriculture
project, I raise a lot of my own food, and I milk my own cow. No joke.
I also homeschool four wild (but not uncultivated) children whose online names are Spazzerific, Banana Brain, Squirrelly Girlie, and Brat Boy. That should explain a few things about them.
I have spontaneously popped into view like a little mushroom in order to share cool topics of semi-obscurity. These include things like sustainability, Christian homesteading, organic gardening, and the occasional (no, really, occasional) opinionated opinion. Meet me here on Monday—bring coffee, and I’ll be nice to you.
