One of the things I want to do is to gather as many "Resources, References, & Stuff like that" in one thread as possible. I hope all of you reading this will contribute to this thread.
Another of the things I intend to do in general is to correct wrong ideas and misconceptions. One of those wrong ideas is that the U.S.Department of Agriculture is against Organic Gardening & Farming. They are not, at least not now. Throughout its early history, organic agriculture was treated with either hostility or apathy by the USDA, land grant universities, and conventional agriculture in general. Fortunately, the atmosphere for discussing, investigating and using organics has improved considerably. While it did not become boldly evident until the 1990s, the tide actually began turning in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
Another misconception is that Organic Gardening and Farming is only a hippie thing. That's flat wrong. Take #54 on the following list as an example.
