      For all those many people who've asked me how to do Kickstarter in Canada. See my comment below for the answer to that question...
      And i've also just heard of a site called indiegogo.com (that looks a whole lot like kickstarter) that's available for international projects.

      Also... i'm way behind on setting up the on-line order form for this book so that you can mail order more copies. For the moment it's available through Urban Harvest in Toronto and will soon be up on the webstore of the Beehive Design Collective. i will be sure to post the link here once it's ready!

      For all those who've asked me about how to run a kickstarter project from Canada... yes, you need a U.S.-based bank account and a U.S. credit card to set up the kickstarter account and amazon account to make this happen. Sorry to say I've not found any special way around this, but rather found a collaborator in the States who was able to help me with these missing pieces, as it's tricky to set up a U.S. bank account without being a resident. Hope this information helps!

      I requested for the books to be shipped to Singapore and have not received them yet. Is anyone else experiencing delays?

      Iara, as the project is now closed to pledge, how can I be part of it and receive a copy in Brazil?
      Hope you have a lot of success!

      Kind regards

      Hi Mary,

      you certainly can grow plants on less sunny balconies - it's just a matter of choosing the right plants! Leafy greens and herbs are best in partial shade. More details in the book!

      cheers!

      Looks good. But not all balconies face south. Can you grow plants on north-facing balconies? Or east or west facing?
      - Mary

      Shipping books to Europe... yes, I can make it happen! Already got sponsors from around the world. Depending on the number of books, i *may* have to add a small amount for shipping costs but i'm hoping i won't have to do that. Thanks for asking.

      I've passed this link around. Hopefully with 50 days to go you'll cover the other $1070, I don't see why not!
