Thanks for this! Long time fan and first time commenting (now that I got my own page up) I'm in the northeast Atlantic coast. Please let me know if you're speaking anywhere in the NJ/NY area.

New Jersey IS NOT the Northeast. Folks from the northeast mostly HATE New Jersey, which is the worst of the Mid-Atlantic States, if not all of the states.
Jersey short didn't help. But FYI the Northeast starts at New Yorks Southern Border.
New England starts at Connecticut and RI's southern border. -
Interesting episode but I think you are far too worried about a neighbor using pesticides. Such a thing is not the end of the world. At most you would get a small amount of drift, and what was not washed off by when you clean your produce. I was in pest control for 7 years, too much of this nation is scaring itself to death.

How much sun is too much sun?

Cut the trees down, that lawn isn't even nice to look out on too shady even for grass

In the Northeast, a good way to build up the soil is, in the fall lay down 8 inches of salt marsh hay (no weed seeds), and cover it with 6 inches of manure and then sow winter rye grass on top, and water in thoroughly. The winter rye will grow about 2 1/2 feet high before the freezing weather kills it the dead gras and roots will hold all the moisture in, so in effect you are composting in place. If you till in the spring you will have great soil.

Nice to see somebody else from the Antelope Valley on here

I was thinking the same thing. Why doesn't John ever talk about about the RGGS? Been growing organically in it for several seasons and would never go back to any other system. John seriously needs to go visit Larry Hall and get him on this program!
