Greetings! I’m pleased to announce that Green Dragon Bytes will now start to host various authors and a wider range of content. Not only will this blog continue to showcase the sustainability efforts of the Waldorf School of Baltimore, but it will now share information about sustainable living practices, permaculture design, community & service learning projects, seasonal recipes, green living household tips and life hacks, and city-wide green events. WSB’s Student Council and Green Dragon Action Team will be instrumental in providing new, fresh content . . . and YOU are also encouraged to contribute to the conversation. This invitation is not exclusive to the Waldorf School of Baltimore community — any reader is encouraged to contribute relevant content. Please contact Michel Anderson (manderson at twsb dot org) if you have something you would like to share.
To kick things off, Green Dragon Action Team member, Tia Thompson, shares her seasonally appropriate Harvest Soup recipe. Try it out this weekend!
