“This week, we invite you to bring an article of bad news from a newspaper near you. They are not hard to find, I’m sure you can quickly find one about the economy, health care, hunger, food security, etc. We’re going to take that bad news and after sheet mulching it into soil it will become good news.”

Chris Burley, Hayes Valley Farm

So yeah, pretty stoked about this new urban farm starting up two blocks from my apartment.  Seems like they’ve got the right idea.

LOUIS MORRILL “Micro Mike Enjoying the Day” Art With Elders Gallery I just stumbled across the current Art With Elders exhibit in my neighborhood of Hayes Valley, and the above piece pretty much made my day.  I think it speaks for itself.  It seems the artist, Louis Morril, makes daily comics featuring this character, “Micro-Mike,” which are shown in the lobby of his nursing home.  Inspiring, isn’t it?
