    Isn’t it funny how so many

    times we can become so fix-

    ated with our own misfor-

    tunes that we neglect to

    remember it could be worse?

    While I’m sitting at my desk

    worrying about business or fam-

    ily issues, I am failing to recog-

    nize everything I am blessed

    with in that moment…i.e. I’m

    breathing. We like to focus on

    the things that get us down and

    in many ways we allow those

    things to ruin our days, our

    relationships, even our lives.

    Meanwhile we forget that

    things can always be worse and

    that we need to be counting

    the blessings that we do have,

    no matter how barebones.

    I had an aunt who would

    seem to be the very imperson-

    ation of “the worst.” Aunt

    Teddy was diagnosed with

    rheumatoid arthritis more than

    two decades ago. The arthritis

    destroyed her body in such a

    way that she was literally twist-

    ed. She was permanently bed-

    ridden and in constant pain.

    For the better part of 15 years,

    the only pure daylight she was

    able to see was on her rare visit

    to the doctors. Before her body

    had begun failing, she truly was

    a ray of sunshine herself to all

    those around her. Aunt Teddy

    shared everything, from her

    shore house to anything else

    she had.

    Every holiday my kids and

    I traveled to see Aunt Teddy.

    After climbing the steps of her

    two-family house, we entered

    to find this poor incapacitated

    woman curled up on a recliner.

    Though she knew exactly who

    The question is: What

    should I do with my

    portfolio now? Should

    the headline of this column

    answer that question effec-

    tively and definitively? After

    all, the stock market has risen

    constantly since the demise of 

    2008 with no major correc-

    tions as of late. Does this

    mean that a correction, pull-

    back or crash is imminent?

    The US stock market’s most

    recent down years in reverse

    order were: 2008, 2002, 2001,

    2000, 1994, 1990 and 1987.

    Might 2015 be next? Is there a

    pattern to be derived from

    these dates and if so, should

    you take any action as not to

    have your portfolio scarred byanother negative year? In

    other words my question real-

    ly is, can anyone actually and

    successfully time the stock

    market to know exactly when

    to get out or into the market

    in order to buy at the low and

    sell at the high?

    Market-timing has been

    tried many times before with

    many pundits claiming suc-

    cess, were these people skilled,

    have the “crystal ball”, just

    lucky, or did they understand

    and follow a pattern? Well,

    sorry to disappoint, there real-

    ly is no exact pattern or way

    to actually determine when

    the next “Big Crash” or “Huge

    Run-up” will occur. Educated

    guesses? Plenty, for sure, but

    there must be a better way to

    win in the wealth accumula-tion game and in my opinion

    there is! It’s not sexy, flashy or

    headline grabbing, but, it

    works when applied and prac-

    ticed. Best part is, everyone

    can participate in the strategy

    regardless of your net-worth,

    current age or level of invest-

    ment. Though not a guaran-

    tee, the facts speak for them-

    selves derived from thousands

    of investors, if not millions of 

    them, throughout the country.

    The greatest asset in the

    accumulation of wealth is not

    how much money you start

    with, but rather how much

    time you have to invest and

    the frequency you add to it.

    Generally speaking, little

    sums of money invested prop-

    erly and consistently over a

    large span of time will turn

    into a very large sum of 

    money. So what is this properinvestment to accomplish

    this? I’ll tell you! The answer

    is not to search for the next

    Apple computer, Google or

    IBM before that. No, that

    would be as difficult as choos-

    ing the best time to buy or

    sell. We’ve determined so far

    that most of us don’t know

    when the best time to buy

    shares would be nor the right

    company shares to purchase

    either. Equally the over-

    whelming majority of stock

    brokers don’t know the

    answer to these two questions

    either, therefore who does?

    I’m afraid the answer is no one

    knows, though there are lots

    of opinions and financial

    newsletters and magazines to

    persuade you to purchase their

    picks for sure. The question

    remains, how can one build a

    successful retirement portfoliowith little knowledge and

    money?

    The answer is to hire the

    finest money management

    talent in the industry to be

    your investment team, give

    them your money and let

    them make the daily decisions

    of what and when to buy and

    sell with a mutual goal of 

    growing the portfolio. Your

    obligation, is simply to invest

    with them every week to ten

    days giving them the capital

    they need to structure, build

    and grow your portfolio.

    However, there is a problem:

    as a single investor with very

    little to invest, you probably

    couldn’t attract the most tal-

    ented portfolio management

    staff. Solution: if you pooled

    your dollars with thousands of 

    other people with the identi-

    cal financial goals, surely youcould do it. The management

    would be directed not to put

    more than 5% of the assets

    into any one security and not

    to deviate from the stated

    objective of growth of capital

    for example. The manager(s)

    would be obligated to choose

    from a varying array of indus-

    tries, companies, countries

    and currencies to avoid over

    exposure in one area or region

    and the associated risk of loss.

    Further, management must

    maintain the ability to liqui-

    date any portion of the portfo-

    lio on demand in case of 

    shareholder liquidity needs.

    (Shares to be sold at market

    value of course.)

    By consistently investing

    as little as $100 a month or

    $50 a week from thousands of investors over the many

    months, quarters and years

    ahead, through the good and

    bad times that will present

    themselves on the road to

    prosperity, financial success

    should be achieved! There is a

    two word description of this

    type of investment vehicle

    with a myriad of variations

    that some call the “perfect

    investment opportunity”.

    That name is a “Mutual

    Fund!” I believe that every-

    one needs to understand how

    these fine financial vehicles

    operate, but, more important-

    ly, how to wisely choose and

    use just a few of the thousands

    of mutual funds available for

    long-term wealth accumula-

    tion. Perhaps the headline of 

    this week’s column shouldread: Buy! Buy! Buy! And

    never stop buying!

    we were, we each found our-

    selves having to verbally con-

    firm our presence. “Hey Aunt

    Teddy. It’s Joey.” Even as diffi-

    cult as it was to see through hersickly disposition, there was

    always joy in her eyes when we

    came to visit her. But the one

    thing that always stuck out to

    me during our visits was her

    answer to the age-old question:

    “How are you doing?” She

    would always smile and reply,

    “It could be worse!”

    Imagine that! Completely

    incapacitated, completely de-

    pendent and filled with pain,and still it could be worse!

    What an attitude to have.

    Aunt Teddy was one of the few

    people for whom I’d say it

    couldn’t get much worse. Yet

    still, there she was visit after

    visit declaring her blessings and

    claiming that things could be

    worse.

    Think about it…

    Today, right now I ask youto think about all the things

    that are good in your life.

    Reflect on them and give

    thanks. You may say, “Joe,

    believe me there is nothing to

    smile about.” The fact that you

    still have breath in your lungs

    means that today is the day

    everything can change. Hey,

    it’s a choice. Make the right

    one! Still need convincing?

    Google a gentlemen named

     Nick Vujicic. If you do, I think

    you might feel differently.

    Developing strong and

    healthy relationships

    with pets requires

    that pet owners provide for

    their pets in a variety of ways.

    Although affection and exer-

    cise are essential elements to

    raising a well-rounded pet,

    owners should not overlook

    one of the most important

    parts of pet care: discipline.

    Well-trained pets can be

    a joy to be around. The

    American Society for the

    Prevention of Cruelty to

    Animals says learning how to

    train a dog can improve the

    life of the pet and the life of 

    the owner, enhancing the

    bond between the owner and

    the dog while ensuring the

    pet’s safety. Many dogs are

    eager to learn and will

    embrace their training.

    Dogs have special needs

    and instincts, communicating

    in ways separate from humans.

    When a puppy is brought into

    a home, both puppy and

    owner must adapt to each

    other. Humans must learn to

    communicate effectively in a

    language that a dog will com-prehend, while dogs must

    learn to fit into the human

    world and refocus some

    behaviors that may not be

    appropriate in a home setting.

    Pet owners have various

    training methods at their dis-

    posal. Pet owners can find

    many resources in the library,

    at pet care centers, or online.

     No matter which training

    method pet owners choose,

    the most effective are those

    that reward good behavior so

    that dogs will be more

    inclined to repeat that behav-

    ior over and over. Bad behav-

    ior should not be punished,

    but there should be conse-

    quences. The ASPCA says

    dogs live in the moment andcannot make connections

    between events and past expe-

    riences. Therefore, praise or

    consequence has to happen

    immediately for the notion to

    be reinforced. If the dog sits

    on command, she should be

    given a treat or a good amount

    of praise. If she is nipping

    while playing, the owner

    should stop the play so that

    the fun ends immediately.

    Training also requires

    consistency. Anyone involved

    in the training and interac-

    tion with the pet should be

    following the same set of 

    guidelines. If a behavior isworthy of praise, it should be

    offered each and every time. If 

    the dog jumps up on a greet-

    ing and that is discouraged,

    every person she jumps up on

    should correct the behavior.

    All it takes is one person to

    pet the dog when she is doing

    According to the

    United States Depart-

    ment of Health and

    Human Services, children and

    adolescents should engage in

    physical activity for 60 minutes

    or more each day. While fulfill-

    ing those requirements might

    not have been a problem for

    kids who grew up before the

    dawn of the Internet, nowadays

    kids are spending less time

    playing outside and more time

    on their computers or other

    devices.

    That reality is problemat-

    ic for parents who want their

    kids to embrace physical activ-

    ity thanks to the positive

    impact that exercise can have

    on kids’ physical and mentalwell-being. Parents hoping to

    instill a love of physical activi-

    ty in their youngsters may find

    that taking a more active role

    by exercising with their kids is

    an effective way to get them off 

    the couch and away from their

    computer screens.

    Turn errands into exercise

    opportunities. Many parents

    take their children along with

    them when running errands.

    When such errands don’t nec-

    essarily require the use of a car,

    consider riding bicycles

    instead. Kids who otherwise

    don’t enjoy errands may now

    find them more fun, all the

    while fulfilling their daily rec-

    ommended quotas for exerciseand spending quality time with

    their parents.

    Include kids in your own

    athletic pursuits. Parents might

    not be able to take younger

    kids along with them to the

    gym, but that does not mean

    your youngsters must be

    excluded from all of your ath-

    letic pursuits. If you have any

    upcoming athletic activities or

    challenges on your schedule,

    such as a new recreational

    sports season or community fun

    run or 5K, let kids tag along as

    you train or practice. Parents of 

    adolescents can inquire at their

    local gyms if they offer dis-

    counted memberships to teens.

    If so, take kids along with youon trips to the gym so they

    learn the value and benefits of 

    daily strength and conditioning

    exercises.

    Make more time to play.

    Parents may already have busy

    schedules, but finding time to

    play with their kids is a great

    way to get youngsters to

    embrace physical activity. Kids

    might be reluctant to shoot

    hoops in the driveway if no one

    is willing to join them, but they

    will likely be far more willing to

    do so if mom and dad are will-

    ing to play with them. This is

    not only a good way for parents

    to ensure their kids get enough

    exercise, but also a great and

    fun way for moms and dads tomake time for physical activity.

    Recognize that physical

    activity does not have to mean

    organized sports. Some kids

    have no interest in team sports

    while others do not have the

    athletic ability to compete after

    a certain age. Parents who

    Summer camp is a beloved tradition in many families.

    Many parents of young children fondly recall spendingtheir summers at summer camp, where they made

    lifelong friends and learned the finer points of roasting

    marshmallows and competing in three-legged sack races.

    Parents looking for the right summer camp for their kids will

    soon discover there are various types of summer camps,each offering youngsters something different. The following

    are some of the summer camp options parents can expect to

    encounter as they search for the right camp for their kids.

    DAY CAMP

    Day camps are not overnight camps, which means kids willreturn home each night rather than sleep over at camp. Day

    camps typically offer many of the activities people have cometo associate with camps, including crafts, sports and even

    day-trips to experience local culture or attractions. Many day

    camps are co-ed, and counselors typically live within thecommunity.

    FAITH-BASED CAMP

    Faith-based camps offer many of the same activities as more

    traditional summer camps, but do so while simultaneouslyoffering campers the opportunity to celebrate and further

    explore their religious beliefs. Some faith-based camps may

    focus heavily on religion, incorporating faith into daily campactivities, while others may be more subtle with regard to

    integrating religious beliefs and lessons into camp activities.

    SPORTS CAMPS

    Some summer camps focus on a particular sport, catering to

    young athletes who want to further develop their athletic

    talents. Sports camps may feature guest lectures and lessonsfrom notable local athletes and coaches, while some camps

    may provide instruction from current and/or former

    professional athletes. Some sports camps are overnight,while others are day camps.

    FAMILY CAMPS

    Family camps are opportunities for the whole family to enjoy

    the summer camp experience. Family camps typically tailor

    their activities around tasks families can complete together,with counselors providing assistance when it's needed.

    Family camps may be faith-based or secular, and familiestypically stay overnight, sleeping in facilities on the campsites

    or in lodging away from home.

    SPECIAL NEEDS CAMPS

    Parents of children with special needs can still send their kidsto summer camp, as there are many camps that cater to such

    youngsters. Special needs camps may cater to campers who

    are blind, deaf, learning disabled, or mentally or physicallydisabled. Staff at special needs camps typically undergoes

    extensive training, which helps to calm some of the fears

    parents may have about leaving their special needs childrenat camp. Facilities at special needs camps are often built to

    accommodate the specific needs of campers.

     with the latest in Bio-

    Nutritional technology to give

    our clients beautiful, healthy 

    lawns while reducing the impact 

    on our soil and water supply.

    "Have a lush green lawn the safer way." 

    TO USE

    i|xãá No, actually all fertilizer is not the same. Most lawn care companies apply

    fertilizer containing a heavy combination of nitrates and phosphates

    which immediately give your lawn a nice green appearance, but is actually

    detrimental as it reduces the long-term health of your soil and lawn.

    Go Organic Lawn Care uses Holganix, a plant-based, compost tea product that contains

    many naturally occurring, LIVING microorganisms that restores soil back to the way Mother

    Nature intended. Similar to the way yogurt’s live cultures benefit our bodies, our programincreases the health of your soil by replenishing the necessary probiotics needed to nourish

    your plants, creating a lawn that is thicker, greener and more resistant to insects and disease.

    want their kids to exercise

    more should recognize thatthere are plenty of ways to be

    physically active that do not

    involve organized team sports.

    Hiking; riding bicycles; swim-

    ming at a nearby pool, lake or

    ocean; and even going for

    nightly walks are all physical

    activities that people of all ages

    and athletic abilities can enjoy.

    Physical activity is an

    important component of a

    healthy lifestyle. While get-ting kids to put down their

    tablets and gaming system

    remote controls may not be

    easy, parents who resolve to

    exercise with their children

    might find their youngsters

    more receptive to regular

    physical activity.

    something wrong to confuse

    the animal.

    It’s also important to

    consider the dog’s tempera-

    ment during training. Certainbreeds tend to be more docile

    or dominant than others.

    Training methods may need

    to be adapted based on the

    demeanor of the dog. Owners

    who have a stubborn, willful

    dog on their hands may need

    firmer, more consistent meas-

    ures. A dog who is more

    amenable may be trained easi-

    ly with food-based rewards.

    Finding the training balancecan take time and patience.

    Dogs who are trained as

    puppies will learn good

    behavior right away and be

    less likely to adopt bad habits.

    But dogs can be trained at any

    age. Older dogs may just

    require a little more effort.

    Training tends to be most

    effective when it is short and

    fun for pets and their owners.

    Dogs do not have long atten-

    tion spans, so many trainers

    recommend that training ses-

    sions last no longer than 15minutes. Commands should

    be to the point and not cloud-

    ed with a lot of language. For

    example, “sit,” “stay,” “down”

    and “off” will get the point

    across.

    Try practicing the train-

    ing in different environments

    and scenarios. This way the

    dog will behave whether at

    home or in a friend’s back-

    yard. Use rewards that are tiedto the event and what the dog

    may find most attractive at

    that point. A hungry dog may

    respond to food treats. A dog

    looking to play may appreci-

    ate a game of catch as a

    reward.

    If training doesn’t seem

    to be working, try a few differ-

    ent options. Some pet owners

    find they need help training

    their dogs. In addition to

    informative literature and

    training videos, dog trainers

    are readily available. Classescan be scheduled privately,

    and many pet centers offer

    group classes to interested pet

    owners. The success rate of 

    training classes and the social-

    ization that these training

    opportunities offer often justi-

    fies the financial and time

    investments required to

    attend classes.

    The American Veter-

    inary Society of AnimalBehavior emphasizes the

    importance of starting a puppy

    in training, including training

    classes before all vaccinations

    have been completed. Data

    supports a lower risk of trans-

    mission of disease in puppy

    socialization classes over the

    last 10 years. Lack of full

    immunizations should not be

    reason alone to keep pups out

    of important training classes.

    Pet owners should know

    that not all behaviors can be

    stopped. Rather than punishthe dog for every natural

    behavior, try to find accept-

    able ways to channel those

    instincts into something safe.

    A dog who likes to chew

    should be given plenty of toys.

    Dogs who are naturally active

    should be given adequate

    amounts of time to run out-

    side. Highly intelligent breeds

    may benefit from agility train-

    ing or even learning assistancetechniques.

    A veterinarian can usu-

    ally provide resources on ani-

    mal trainers in the area. Look

    to work with Certified

    Professional Dog Trainers

    (CPDTs) and Certified

    Applied Animal Behaviorists

    (CAABs)

    Despite other inten-tions, homeowners

    often turn their

    garages into storage centers

    for random, little-used items,

    leaving little to no room for

    the tools and even vehicles

    that actually belong in agarage. Such homeowners

    may turn to sheds to store

    their garage overflow and

    keep yard equipment at the

    ready, but storage sheds are

    not immune to clutter, and

    homeowners may find thevery structure erected to keep

    them organized requires a bit

    of organization itself.

    A well-organized shed

    can save homeowners time

    and energy, as it’s easy to

    abandon or delay a project if you can’t find that pair of 

    work gloves you stashed. The

    first step to any organizing

    project is to take everything

    out of the shed and determine

    just what needs to go back in.

    Items that do not belong inthe shed should be moved to

    their rightful locations or

    tossed in the trash if they’re

    no longer needed. Make a pile

    of anything that will be kept,

    a separate one for donations

    and a third for garbage. Take

    inventory of what you have so

    you know whether you’re

    missing any items or you havesomething and do not need to

    purchase another.

     Now that the enti re

    shed is empty, you can assess

    just how much room you

    have. Utilizing vertical and

    overhead space effectively

    can free up areas on the floor

    for larger equipment.

    Shelving, racks, peg-

    boards and any other materi-

    als that enable you to hang or

    store items off the floor are

    good investments. Visit your

    nearby home improvement

    retailer to find items that can

    simplify your storage. You also

    may be able to put scrap wood

    to use to make your own stor-

    age shelves or a work bench.

    Extra kitchen cabinets can beinstalled in the shed to organ-

    ize additional items.

    In order to remember

    where items go, label or sort

    them accordingly. Some peo-

    ple like to take organization a

    step further by tracing the

    outline of tools hung on the

    wall so they can be placed

    back in the same spot after

    use. This also serves as a visu-

    al reminder of which tools are

    missing and which ones need

    to be purchased.

    Don’t forget to utilize

    shed doors as additional stor-

    age space. Hang frequently

    used tools, such as rakes and

    shovels, on the inside of the

    doors so they will always be

    easily accessible.

    You also can repurpose

    storage solutions designed forother areas of the home. For

    example, magnetic knife

    holders can be mounted to a

    shed wall to keep paintbrush-

    es organized. These holders

    also can be used to keep many

    small metal tools tidy. Metal

    funnels can hold twine and

    string. Thread through the

    narrow end of the funnel for a

    handy dispenser.

    Keep dangerous sub-

    stances off the floor and out of 

    reach. Gasoline, chemical fer-

    tilizers and other potentially

    dangerous substances should

    be stored high up to

    keep pets and children safe.

    Make sure the shed floor

    is sturdy and level. This makes

    it easier to neatly store larger

    items. Roll in the lawnmower,

    wheelbarrow and any othercumbersome items. Now that

    more things are mounted ver-

    tically, you should find that

    you have more area to move

    around.

    Taking the time to clean

    and organize a shed can help

    make anyone more productive.

    Mother Nature pro-

    vides plenty to grow

    healthy lawns, gar-

    dens and landscapes. But as

    many homeowners know,

    some lawns sometimes need a

    little extra boost to comple-

    ment nature. Soil sometimes

    must be amended so plants

    can thrive. Only after the

    right composition is created

    can plants take root and

    perform to the best of their

    abilities.

    The Colorado State

    University Extension defines a

    soil amendment as any materi-

    al added to soil to improve its

    physical properties. The goal is

    to provide a better environ-

    ment for roots. Depending on

    what you are starting with, any

    number of ingredients must be

    added to the soil recipe. Water

    retention, permeability,

    drainage, aeration, nutrients,

    and water infiltration are some

    of the things amendments can

    improve when added to soil.

    Before homeowners add

    anything to the soil in their

    yards, it is first important to

    determine what that soil

    needs. Homeowners maynotice if soil is overly sandy or

    full of clay, but further testing

    can confirm what the soil is

    lacking. Soil tests are often

    available through local coop-

    erative extension offices or

    private laboratories. Speak

    with a nursery or gardencenter

    about where you can get your

    soil tested. A comprehensive

    test may cost between $5 and

    $10 and can provide invalu-

    able information that saves

    you hundreds of dollars in

    wasted plants and materials,

    not to mention effort. Some

    labs also can tailor their rec-

    ommendations based on the

    type of planting you will be

    doing. For example, a veg-

    etable garden may need differ-

    ent amendments than a row of 

    azalea bushes.

    Organic matter is a pre-

    ferred soil amendment used by

    professional and novice gar-

    deners alike. The decaying

    remains of plants release nutri-

    ents that are absorbed into the

    Fresh ingredients are

    the hallmark of a

    Mediterranean diet,

    which is one reason so many

    people have increasingly

    embraced this captivating cui-

    sine in recent years. Rich in

    the use of fish, vegetables,

    fruit, cheese and olive oil,

    Mediterranean diets are both

    delicious and loaded with

    nutrition.

    Perhaps most surprisingabout the Mediterranean diet

    is not the ingredients, but

    how differently those ingredi-

    ents are used from country to

    country. Meals that are com-

    monplace in Morocco might

    be nothing like those served

    in Spain, despite containing

    similar ingredients. That’s

    great news to men and women

    who want to embrace the

    Mediterranean diet, which

    can provide the healthy vari-

    ety of ingredients men and

    women are looking for.

    Those who want a taste

    of Spanish tapas can try the

    following recipe for “Pork

    Tenderloin With Pears and

    Sweet Sherry” courtesy of 

    Sophie Baimbridge’s “Stylish

    Mediterranean in Minutes”(Kyle Books).

    jp g

    2 garlic cloves

    1 pear, not too hard if possible

    Scant ½ cup sweet oloroso sherry

    Few tablespoons chicken

    broth (optional)

    Sea salt and freshly

    ground black pepper

    Heat a ladled sauté pan

    to medium-hot. (The trick to

    pan-frying meat is the tem-

    perature of the pan. It should

    be hot enough to brown and

    seal the meat, but not so hotthat you burn the bottom of 

    the pan, as the sediment left

    adds a delicious flavor to the

    final sauce.)

    Trim the tenderloin of 

    any white sinew and cut into

    ½ inch slices. Add the oil to

    the pan and, when hot, add

    the pork. Cook the slices,

    browning on both sides.

    Remove when the meat is

    sealed and brown, but if the

    slices are thicker, reduce the

    heat a little to cook through.

    Meanwhile, chop the onion

    and slice the garlic.

    Remove the meat to a

    bowl and add the onion and

    garlic to the pan. Cover the

    pan with the lid and gently

    cook the onion, scraping all

    the tasty sediment left by the

    meat (add a dash of water tohelp remove it before it burns

    if the pan is too hot).

    While the onion is cook-

    ing, peel the pear, quarter,

    core and cut into thin slices.

    Add the pear and continue to

    cook for another 5 minutes,

    covered. When the onion and

    pear are soft, return the meat

    to the pan, mixing into the

    onions and season with salt

    and pepper.

    Increase the heat to

    medium-hot, add the sherry

    and cook at a brisk simmer

    for 2 minutes to amalgamate

    the flavors. If you like your

    meat with a bit more sauce,

    you can add a few table-

    spoons of chicken broth or

    even water when the sauce

    comes to a boil.

    Set aside for a few min-utes then serve as a tapas or

    main course.

    soil and used by microorgan-

    isms and bacteria, creating a

    healthy environment for

    plants. Organic material may

    break up compacted soil to

    increase drainage. In sandy

    soil, organic material serves

    as a sponge to keep water

    from washing away. Compost

    and manure are two examples

    of frequently used organic

    materials. Both of these

    materials are readily availableat little cost.

    Compost can be pro-

    duced at home from food and

    plant scraps. Raked leaves and

    small amounts of grass clip-

    pings can be added to compost.

    Over time, the decomposition

    process will turn scraps into a

    nutrient-rich, dark brown sub-

    stance that provides many

    plants with all they need to

    thrive. Compost is particularly

    useful in vegetable gardens.

    Manure should come

    from herbivores, or those ani-

    mals that sustain themselves

    on grass and other plants.

    Carnivores can produce harm-

    ful bacteria in their waste,

    which is not safe to use in gar-

    dens, particularly food-bear-

    ing gardens. Manure can be

    commercially purchased, oravid gardeners can work out

    arrangements with nearby

    livestock owners and farms.

    These people may be more

    than willing to give you

    manure for little to no cost if 

    you cart it away. Dried manure

    is preferred because it will

    have minimal odor.

    Additional forms of 

    organic amendments include

    wood ash, sphagnum peat,

    wood chips, sawdust, and

    worm droppings.

    Inorganic amendments

    also may be used, and are usu-

    ally relied on to improve water

    retention and drainage.

    Vermiculite, perlite, pea grav-

    el, and sand are examples of 

    inorganic amendments. A

    combination of organic and

    inorganic amendments cancreate the perfect mix for your

    needs.

    Soil amendments typical-

    ly are added to new and

    unplanted beds. Peat moss and

    shredded bark take years to

    decompose and will serve as

    long-term amendments in the

    soil. Compost breaks down

    quickly and may need to be

    worked in more frequently.

    Experts recommend

    spreading amendments on the

    planting bed and then using a

    rake or tiller to work it in to a

    depth of about nine inches.

    Particularly sandy soil or soil

    with a lot of clay may need

    more amendments.

    Permanent plants, such

    as trees or shrubs, also can

    benefit from the extra nutrient

    boost amendments provide.Sometimes it is sufficient to

    spread the material over the

    soil surface and let rainwater

    and wildlife help distribute it

    to the plant roots. Otherwise,

    work it into the top inch or

    two of the dirt with a hand

    cultivator.

    Amendments can help produce healthy soil

    Springtime at Arbor Glen

    To celebrate spring, Esther DelCarpio and her group of volun-

    teers visited the residents of Arbor Glen Center in Cedar

    Grove with a wonderful program of songs from the Beatles to

    Broadway. There were plenty of volunteers on hand. Newcomer,

    Isabella, a 5 year old Pomeranian pooch made her debut. Isabella is

    owned by Morgan Hiers of Totowa. Morgan felt that Isabella would

    make a great therapy dog due to Isabella’s love for people and cud-

    dling. Anyone interested in pet therapy or volunteering can contact Esther

    DelCarpio at 973-890-7556 or email [email protected].
