it's been a long battle, especially doing it on my own since my husband passed and left me with 3 kids under 13, but hey your right age is just a number. Thanks for the kind words
Wow, it sounds like you've been through so much. You are an inspiring human! Be well, glad to be connected on here.
Thank you, Foodisfree, what a great name. I am a homesteader, so I advocate for the concept of freefood. what is the driving force of your name?
Awesome to meet fellow homesteaders on here! I started a project called Food is Free Project. After planting a front yard garden and realizing how much I interacted with neighbors, I had a vision wondering what it'd be like if a whole block had front yard gardens.
I felt the call and got together with neighbors and friends and we built raised bed gardens out of salvaged wooden pallets and within 3 months, 19 of the 30 houses on our block had a front yard garden.
The idea was that we could swap harvests with each other to build community. After blogging about it, the project went open source and I encouraged others to take our ideas and make them better.
Now over 350 cities around the world have started Food is Free Projects and are growing and sharing food with #foodisfree to spread the inspiration. :)
Wow. That is just absolutely amazing. I would love to start this in my town. I live in a small town so it is filled with gardeners and homesteaders and farmers. Upvoted and re steemed. Thanks
Thanks so much for sharing the vision! I'd love to offer any advice I can along the way. I've been learning a lot of different ideas from the different projects around the world. I'm so inspired by the connections I've been making including all of these on here. :)
