How one micro eco-farm is solving hunger at its core while supporting the return of fairly-paid local and regional sustainable farms

Personal — Posted by: www.microecofarming.com @ 12/04 2005, 00:28

Here is a great demonstration of how the poor get fed healthy food and learn to overcome, without free or overly cheap foods and imports infiltering the mainstream and undermining local and regional farms. A 6 and a half acre farm in Montana raises tens of thousands of pounds of food for targeted and recognized food emergencies (food shelters, recognized low-income families). www.gardencityharvest.org/programs/farm.html

Student interns earn credit and learn to operate their own future micro eco-farms, and community gardens allow people to rent plots and grow food for themselves or work towards earning vegetables grown there, helping end the cycle of dependency on free handouts and loss of self-empowerment that comes from the inability to generate at
least a portion of our own food supply.

Remineralize the Earth: Beyond organics

Personal — Posted by: www.microecofarming.com @ 12/01 2005, 15:53

Gold, along with silver, cobalt, and all the other elements of the earth in perfect balance with one another, are the vital ingredients of a movement to remineralize the earth to its most pristine balance. Not only for improved health and productivity of gardens and farms, but connected to the biosphere and the future of the planet. There are far more needed elements than the few trace and major minerals conventional and even some organic farmers put back into the soil. Plus, it is their balance together that creates the overall promising picture greater than the sum of its parts. The story, and resources for them, can be found at the new URL of the non-profit Remineralize the Earth: www.remineralize.org

How One Future Micro Eco-Farmer is Raising the Funds to Begin

I will definitely look into getting your book through my library. I
can't wait to read it. I really think that there is a movement toward
this way of life, and that movement can only grow stronger as our
economy continues the way it is,
wrote Shaunta from Las Vegas. Using a concept called short-term extreme frugality, they are getting out of debt and building savings by using a short period of very intense thrift, showing their progress on their website: www.pennywisejournal.com. Unlike the idea of being extremely frugal for a lifetime, they are using it for a specific finite goal. The reason we want to get out of debt and save money? So that we can move out of Las Vegas. We want to
be micro-farmers!
they reported.
