Tomatoes

Trying to eat locally to reduce your carbon footprint? Well, you can’t get much more local than your own backyard.

Campbell’s Soup is offering a free package of tomato seeds to everyone who wants them. Just visit their website to request yours, and they’ll also donate seeds to FFA.

Ice Cream Cone Cup Cakes

Cupcake wrappers may be pretty, but they sure aren’t pretty for the environment; so the next time you run out, purchase a box of ice cream cones instead. They’ll work just as well, and they can be eaten right along with the cupcake. Yum!

Conecake Baking Instructions:

Fill the ice cream cones with cake batter, stopping an inch from the top. Then, bake at 350 for 30 to 35 minutes.
