Well, after two days with no electric after our storms in Maryland, I really see how dependent we are. We lost food that was frozen, had to depend on ice from outside sources for the rest of the refrigerated foods.

As I was telling my mother, the Dervaes have it right -
we need to be independent, including having "citified farm animals" to help us. Having all of the fruits and veggies we need is essential.

Thanks again for forging the path for so many of us!

It's just a small matter of time, really.

As time goes on I think that home grown food will be the only way of bring food cost down to an affordable level. With oil rising week by week it is going to make all food more and more expensive not to mention the sky rocketing potash costs. It is really hard to wrap your head around but the day is coming when the average consumer can no longer afford to use energy.

What PTF is doing is starting a community that hopefully can assist in converting people to be more self sufficiently and help, even if in a little way, to reduce our use of energy.

Keep up the good work!
