How to Take Control of Your Future Food Supply

In general, we in the western industrialized nations don’t know much about how to grow our own food.

This is in spite of the fact that there are literally dozens of wild edible plants wherever we happen to be living of which we are also ignorant.

Our collective ignorance invites a huge risk when it comes to food security and survival.

Evolving Toward Local Credits

Thomas H. Greco

http://www.realitysandwich.com/evolving_toward_local_credits

If a local currency is going to support people -> essentials of life are good first step for design. Food is the most obvious example, but housing, clothes are also needed in some form. (probably others)
From there, an economy could diversify, bringing in welcomed services, ect.

The Farm Contractor - a RealVolution in Local Food Production

The results on the Industrial Farm model are in. The facts are clear.
It sucks.
Food is the basis of civilization and the basis of all monetary systems. If your civilization is suffering, then the only logical action is to address the foundations. This is my version of a Stimulus Package for Humanity.
Here is how the Farm Contractor works.

Harvest

Ian

I ventured down to Genoa, WI this past weekend to hunt morels. A few close friends of mine stomped through the thorny hillsides of my friend's southwestern Wisconsin land. We went out for 5 beautiful hours and captured approximately 20lbs. (See photos)
