At some point in the not to distant future we are planning on packing it up and moving somewhere that is a lot slower pace than where we currently are. We use to be "out in the country" but the city followed us out here and it just isn't the same anymore.
I look forward to the day that we will be homesteading and enjoy reading about others who have already opted for that lifestyle. Not real familiar with the Zero Waste movement but I can agree that plastics are a big pain for animals for sure.
