Soy de El Paso

elpasonaturally is about being local - about the fact that sustainability is accomplished best on the local level. I will begin talking more about local food and a local diet, about permaculture, water conservation and environmental care. (Taking care of the Rio Bosque Wetlands Park is just a beginning to recovering the ecosystems that have been lost to and by unsustainable urbanization over the past many decades.)

It is with great delight that I discovered yet another El Paso blogger who shares a zeal for keeping things local: Patty Garcia. Her blog is Soy de El Paso. Visit and bookmark it.

She describes her interest as "El Paso. Nothing else." And, in a recent entry she writes: "you know what’s even better than just getting it done? Doing it and doing it local." She is highlighting El Paso businesses, entertainment, culture, fashions and much more. Just browse through all her links. Go over to the left hand column and check out all the links at "news from chucotown".

Ideas and visions are like fields of wildflowers: they all begin to burst forth at the same time and flourish and bring forth more beautiful flowers. Local, native flowers indeed are bursting forth here in El Paso even at this time of the winter solstice.
