Rick goes on the road transporting Cairn Terrier rescue dogs around the country and tells us about it. There are dog rescue groups for all sorts of breeds, a web search will show you who they are.
Rick tells of driving his Prius across the country several times recently, getting good gas mileage and camping in his tent to make it all easier with the dogs.
You can go camping in NYC! On the far side of Floyd Bennet Field there are tent and RV campgrounds. This reminds Rick of his time as part of the Confederate Air Force.
Wasted food in the US is a an article from The Guardian we discuss. Go buy the damaged fruit. Its cheaper and sends a message to groceries that we will buy less than perfect food.
We touch on a GF sponsor, Eco Scraps, who takes food waste and makes it into garden products.
Rick's tomatoes are doing much better this year after using plastic mulch.
