Questions for Bill
Posted on September 26, 2003 in Interviews
Bill Hopkins of Prairie Point has asked for an interview:
- In what ways is your garden like quilt? Is any part of it done in Prairie Point?
- How do you reconcile your gardening with your environmental concerns?
- Do you let any part of your garden “go wild”?

- Why do you resonate with Paul Krugman when he writes that the environment “scares” him more than anything else?
I am open for other interviewees!
