Q:I've just moved to a house with a nice back yard, with all kinds of plants and trees in it, but I have no idea how to figure out which plants or trees they are. I'd like to know how to take care of them in the best way, but I'd need to know what they are first.

That is cool that you moved into a place that is already landscaped. All of my new houses have been all grass and it is a lot of work and money to put in a garden. It's fun, but still a lot of work. First thing I would do is get a good gardening book that you can search for the plants and trees that you have in your garden. I have a copy of the Better Homes and Gardens Complete Guide to Gardening ISBN number: 0-696-00041-5. The book has photos, descriptions and information on how to care for them. I'm sure there are newer books, but this is a good example. Once you go through the book if there are any plants or trees that you can not identify, I would take photos and then take them to a good local garden store and see if they can help you out. You can also look at attending any local garden shows or events. They usually have gardeners with a lot of knowledge and are happy to help out. For really good local knowledge in my area I visit Darts Hill Garden: www.dartshill.ca/

Q:I am a believer in providing my own food for myself, but i am worried that in the future the pollen of GMO's will contaminate the crops i am growing at home? Is this a possibility?

Yes, it is possible. In fact, there was a case a few years back where Monsanto was taking some farmers to court because their neighbors were growing GMO soy beans and Monsanto thought the others' soybeans may have been cross with their GMO soy beans. Since the farmers Monsanto took to court were saving seeds from their crop Monsanto claimed they were benefiting from their GMO work without paying for the benefit. In essence, the companies making GMO seeds can claim you owe them for using their product even if you did not know your crop had been crossed with their modified plants' pollen if you saved seeds to plant the following year. There are also some organic growers suing Monsanto for contaminating their organic and heirloom crops with GMO pollen as this would change their foods and seeds status, possibly (probably) making them unusable for their intended purpose. Personally, I hope they win and Monsanto has to pay such a large award they have to abandon their GMO projects entirely. Google 'Monsanto sues farmers' and read about the Canadian farmer they sued and the end result of the suit; it is very interesting. Good luck and enjoy!

Q:This type of business would not need any big outlay to setup, but is there many people that would want such a service and would it make much of a profit?Additional DetailsHome Cleaning ie, vacuuming, mopping, dusting, damp wiping, cleaning toiletsGarden Care ie, mowing, hedge cutting

No keep the two separate. No one wants a cleaning company where the employees smell like fertilizer.

Q:My city is experiencing Stage 2 water restrictions. Could you please explain the following?1. What the Aquifer level has to be for each stage to take affect.2. What each stage-limit entails.3. Do restrictions differ from state-to-state? 4. Is it a necessity to water your yard, other than it looking nice? Does it mess with foundation(or whatever)?5. How many stages are there?6. Can the aquifer run completely out of water? What would you do then? P.S: I posted this in HomeGarden, 1 person answered, not much info...didn't know where else to post. sorry...

I answered your other question (in HomeGarden), but thought that you might be interested in a recent news article as well. Althought the Bush Administration is reporting $800 million to help drought stricken farmers, this is money already earmarked for such projects and does nothing to help the individual families in these same areas.
