Botany of Desire - ONLINE!

So, I heard that Michael Pollan's book was being made into a movie/documentary for PBS. "Awesome", I thought, since the book was excellent. But I didn't let you fair readers know about it because:
1) Every other garden blogger already did (I felt pelted with this info!) and
2) I don't have a TV anymore and was a bit bummed that I was going to have to miss out

But, guess what?! The lovely people of PBS have made the documentary available for online streaming. Can I get a big "wooo-hoo!" from the TV-free folks? Needless to say, it's good. Really good. Even non-gardeners will enjoy the film. Check it out here!

Thanks for the tip! Good rainy day watching. Our church held a showing of Food Inc last night (I know, my church, go figure. I think someone told the board that Poly Face Farm was run by a Christian and they let it slide....) If you havn't seen it, grab an non-organic friend and watch it togher. Speeks well to pop culture.

Betsy, I love it that your church had a screening! I think more churches should take it seriously that we are the "caretakers of the earth".
