Sounds really interesting!! I would love to read this magazine.
I am a child of the Sixties masquerading as a teacher, wife, mother and grandmother, and a sometimes gardener, decorator, and cook. I've always been an avid "junker" and enjoy finding items that I can remake or recycle into something beautiful or useful. I hope I am passing this trait on to future generations!

FREECYCLE
If you are a recycler and haven't checked out freecycle.org yet, you don't know what you're missing! Freecycle is a grassroots, nonprofit movement of people who are giving and getting stuff entire for free in their own area. It only takes a few minutes to sign up with a Freecycle group in your area and you will be amazed at what is offered there. Plus, Freecycle is a wonderful way for you to give your cast-off items a new life in someone else's home! Check out their website at www.freecycle.org.
