- About Me:
- I'm an ex-teacher/ principal with innercity youth and children from the Gila River Indian Reservation. Making the Valley my home in 1972 seemed to coincide with joining the Tempe Gentle Strength Co-op steering committee which brought me closer to living the kind of lifestyle that I found as attractive then as I do now.

- Hi Cynthia:
Thanks for the compliments - they're appreciated!
What kind of "small space" do you have? Dirt? Concrete? Pots? I would say "do what you are doing" and come to some of our classes.
