Insane about Lichens!

Greetings All!
Today was a great day. Amongst the many discoveries the day brought upon me, I was most intrigued to learn by the lowly lichen. Did you know the lichen is a symbiotic relationship between a fungus and an algae. Now that is neat. Somehow these little buggers decided to evolve with each other, kinda like teamed up for the benefit of each, and look how good it turned out. I spent a good amount of my day exploring a tree stump in my back yard with my brother and Rachelle. What I thought to be a lichen at first was actually a tree fungi, somewhat similar to a mushroom...
...I also discovered some great facts about mushrooms today. Did you know back in the 1930's this guy by the name of Erowid R. Gordon Wasson, a vice president for J.P. Morgan, made a bunch of trips down to Mexico and became an amateur mushroom expert! Turns out he was from New Jersey too. Pretty cool. Then I did some yoga in my yoga room and that concluded the better part of one hour of a great day in the life of Garden Club.

SoFee and Me 

Welcome to The Garden Club

Haha bitches,
Now I have a blog too! Don't judge me by the character of my blog, after all, I am not as computer savvy as I shoud be. I blame this on the fact that I don't really like computers, as I prefer notebooks and counting sticks and also on the fact that I not right good.
So a quick history about The Garden Club...
Garden Club was started in the spring of 2005 while I was at chiropractic school (www.nycc.edu). There was a large plot of land behind the gym where I worked which appeared to have once been a garden. Being the horticulturist I am, I asked around and discovered there was once a garden on that site. I then went to student life and formed my own Garden Club, the only problem being we had no Tee Shirts. This probem was quickly solved by my good buddy Tim Bietz, who made the best garmets ever! GOOD JOB TIM! I sold the shirts for $10 a piece and almost grew a garden; however, I became lazy and decided the best course of action would be to not weed the garden and see what happened. As it turns out, vegetables don't like weeds, and so I only got 4 tomatoes and about 12 super hot peppers, buts thats a blog for another day. I am disapointed my rubarb never turned out though, oh well.
