		<description>my husband is big on organic gardening because not only it affects our environment, it affects our health greatly, too, that is why people are getting sicker nowadays.
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Ah, yeah Belle. I love your garden with the fruit tress. Hubby likes to have our own vegetable garden too, with herbs planted. But he thinks I can do most of the work eh, even those low maintenance plants, I can&#039;t grow, what about vegetables kaya :) So that we won&#039;t buy na lang daw and we can even sell daw the extra. Oo nga naman, its like its that easy haha!&lt;/li&gt;

		<description>Hi Teacher Julie,

I try to do all those things.   My biggest concern here is people are so obsessed with the lawns.  Having immaculate lawns means a whole lot of pesticides and herbicides.   We get a love letter from the homeowner&#039;s association if we don&#039;t have a near perfect lawn for not using so much chemicals.
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;I am not sure Tina but with the use of chemical pesticides, flowers seem to lose their scents.Not sure though. Your place must look wonderful but the use of chemicals should be given less emphasis. If only I can grow a garden myself, I will but hubby likes to grow produce, magtanim daw kami ng gulay and herbs. We are stillÂ  thinking about this. He likes to but he expects me to do most of it eh bromeliad nga lang na low maintenance, I even managed to make it dry and wilt :D Hope you can post photos of your garden in spring and summer.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;</description>

		<description>Hi Teacher Julie!  This one&#039;s very informative.  I can remember my dad use cow&#039;s droppings as fertilizer for his vegetable garden.  And I can say that it really is better than commercial fertilizers.  Not to mention kinder to the environment too.

	&lt;li&gt;You said it right, Janice. Its not just about the droppings but fruit peels and discarded/spoiled vegetables and fruits too. Earth-friendly pa. Thanks :)&lt;/li&gt;

		<description>Great post Julie! I&#039;ll visit Pelf&#039;s site and check out the other posts. :)
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Thanks, MegaMom. We need a lot of blog posts like these to increase awareness, instead of the usual blabber of things we don&#039;t particularly want to read about, lol. Seriously, its the least we can do, if we can&#039;t do these things ourselves ;)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;</description>

		<description>Hi Julie. This is a great post. The world would be a better place if each one took time to take care of the environment. Lovely photo at the end.
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;Thanks Rachel. I am saddened with has been happening in our environment, especially here in our country. Im not surprised when calamities happen since these are majority caused by humans&#039; disrespect for Mother Nature.&lt;/li&gt;
