Bill Siemer grew up on a farm in Lassen County, played basketball at Shasta JC, went to Vietnam, became a newspaper reporter and then a lawyer and now considers himself a champion of the story that needs to be told. He lives on the bank of the river and takes pictures.
I completely lack patience and commitment when it comes to gardening. But I recently started growing my own edible sprouts - in mason jars on my kitchen counter in my air-conditioned house. Germination to harvest: 5 days. Short-attention span gardener here!
