Localvore for a Month

This page is about my decision to live off the land for the month of July. It was a decision that came out of the “Plastic Free July” movement and as I thought more about it I decided to have a go at becoming a true “Localvore” for a month. It’s something I’m doing for myself, for my connection with the land and my health. It is also something I am doing as a project of learning about what our community really does have to offer in terms of local sustenance and what we are missing.

Here are the guidelines I have set for myself;

• Eat food that we have grown here on the farm
• Swap and barter with neighbours
• Ride my bike and my horse only for transport
• Cook only using wood (grown on the farm)
• Use only hot water from the wood stove or compost shower

The following are a series of blogs I am doing along the way, please feel free to comment…
