The new quarterly issue of the local Back Porch View Magazine just came out, and is worth a look. And not just because I have a story published in it (The Great Cribbage Tournament of 1958, pages 6-7). There are several articles on sustainability topics, and it has a great local community feel. You can find free copies at various businesses in Bigfork, Somers, Lakeside Kalispell, Columbia Falls and Libby. Or you can subscribe (see their website).
Here are some articles in the Spring 2012 issue, pertinent to ESP’s mission:
- Recycling Old Wood into Beautiful Furniture (page 9)
- Save $ and Go Green: Make your own cleaning supplies (pages 10-11)
- Preparing your Vegetable Garden (pages 12-13)
- Got Milk? Pass the Kream! (pages 17-18)
- Vintage Cooking (page 22)
- Recycle: turn your magazines into… piñatas (page 23)
- Farewell to an old friend; The end to fishing for bulltrout in Swan Lake (page 24)
- Energy Efficient Mobile Homes [a how-to] (page 29)
- Short-term survival food list for emergencies (page 30)
