Know Your Roots — Stone Ridge Apple Orchard

Tricia — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 22:00:12 +0000

When is a non-organic apple better than an organic one? When that non-organic apple is grown on a local farm that practices sustainable agriculture. In this video we head to Stone Ridge Orchard, located in the Hudson River Valley two hours north of New Your City, to see how they are using progressive ecological farming methods to produce apples that are good tasting, good for the land, and good for your health. We learn that sustainable farming can’t always be pesticide free, but can use natural ecosystems and pests like aphids to reduce pesticide use and promote land stewardship. And we get an introduction to Stone Ridge’s ‘Know Your Roots’ philosophy, which acknowledges that every farm is different, and that organic food is more than a label on your produce. Check out these apples’ roots. You’ll never look at a Granny Smith the same way again.

What is making these tracks on my Tomato plant leaves?

Tricia — Fri, 17 Oct 2008 09:45:16 +0000

How do I get rid of whatever bug is making tracks on the leaves of my Tomato plants. It looks like a very thin film of little light colored trails I thought at first it was just water stains but it appears to be trials like would be left by an insect of some kind with dirty feet. What is making these tracks on my leaves and do I need to get rid of and if so what insecticide or organic remedy will work? Should I put Dawn dish detergent on the leaves of my Tomato plants?
It actually appears to be a light discoloration more than a film..I dont think it is slugs or snails because the little trails on the leaves are too small. What else makes little trails all over my leaves?

They're called leafminers, this will help,

You don't really need to spray the plant with anything, just cut the infected leaves off.
It's very common with tomatoes, at least here in FL.
Hope this helps
