Note from Megan: In this picture, I’m working with mozzarella cheese. We had a cheese-making session when we ran this article, and Tabitha taught us the basics of making mozzarella.

Megan enjoys reading and writing about all things green, but she is especially interested in renewable energy and energy efficiency. Megan has been working for Mother Earth News since 2002. She is a graduate of the University of Kansas, where she studied English, environmental policy and journalism. She lives in Lawrence, Kan., with her husband. 

Megan is the beat editor for Renewable Energy and Green Homes, and writes for the Energy Matters blog.

"I like writing about renewable energy, because powering your home with renewables is exciting, and who doesn't want to dream big? But there's a lot to be said for energy efficiency too, because wherever you live or how much money you have, you can start working on that now. "
