Cyclosporiasis is on the rise in the US but the information on how to handle the parasite is very contradictory. Literally heard on the radio this morning that in order to kill Cyclospora cayetanensis, you have to boil your produce but the news is saying something else.

Please be safe everyone.

    We tried that and now our city says no can’t have garden unless you’re zoned for that. Totally bullshit!

      Look into something like an indoor hydroponic garden. There’s some for fairly inexpensive on Amazon and nothing beats homegrown

      I set this little guy up to grow lettuce for my birds. It’s got just two pods and no automatic lights and the bubbler turns off with the lights

      I’m in the middle of cleaning the big one, 6 or 7 pods, which can grow a surprising amount. It’s got adjustable height and timers for the light
