We’ve written a fair number of posts about the need for people to get together to start growing more of the food they need rather than buying it. These posts have been written from a variety of perspectives. They range from the length and fragility of complex, just in time supply chains through to taking back a degree of control over your life through a greater level of food self sufficiency. Also, if a food growing project is done collectively, there’s the additional benefit of the boost to community solidarity and morale. Something that in these troubled times, we need as much of as possible. A number of these posts are listed at the foot of this piece.
Growing your own food is a good idea but no way do I want to become a vegetarian. My apartment manager won't be cool with having cows and chickens on the property, let alone a garden.
