Going a little bit feral A mother of four seeking a simpler and more sustainable life. Currently at home, I'm stepping up my sustainable goals in 2009.
Urbanite mom who is learning and doing the home skills while waiting to be able to garden. Site has crafts, canning, baking, frugal living and research. We will be starting the rehab of an old country general store in the spcommunity hoping to turn the place green and self sufficient as well as designing permaculture gardens.
There is an exciting challenge ahead of all of us: How can we revitalize our extraordinary planet,
ensucommunity life and health for the environment, the ecosystems, humankind, and future generations? The
answer is as close to each of us as the food we consume each day. We can begin to create a better
world from right where we are - in home gardens and mini-farms, in virtually all climates and soils. This is
what we are striving to do at YellowTree Farm.
