sustainable agriculture project



 I want to live sustainably and share these skills with others. I am a
farmer and teacher of sustainable Biointensive mini-farming and have
worked with Ecology Action and John Jeavons for the past 6 years. I am
looking for land to grow all my food, fiber, income and compost for the
soil in a way that benefits the soil and ecosystem, instead of depleting
it. This organic method of agriculture uses only manual tools and very few
resources, making it one of the only methods that is sustainable and
available to most people in the world. My long-term goal is to establish
an educational center that will equip others with the skills necessary to
live richly and sustainably with the planet and her children. I am also
looking for others with sustainable living skills who are deeply committed
to live sustainably and share their experience with others to be a part of
this project. 
At least 20 acres will eventually be required and 300+ would be ideal.
Initially, only about 1/4 of an acre will be cultivated sustainably and
this will increase to no more than 3 to 5 acres over time. As the
educational center grows, 1/2 to 1 acre will be used for housing and
teaching facilities. The remainder of the land will always be left in
wild. Plentiful year-round water is a must. 
If you have land that fits this description and want to see involved in
this project, please contact me.
