FEEDING OURSELVES
Josie Holt
Resilience is the ability to prepare for, withstand, and recover from a crisis or disruption. A resilient food system is able to withstand and recover from disruptions in a way that ensures a sufficient supply of acceptable and accessible food for all.
With thousands of books and websites dedicated to growing your own food, anyone can do it!
So why aren’t we? Let's work together to explore some simple permaculture design tools to help connect us to our individual and community food growing needs and capacities.
