Here's a link to the urban homestead site: http://urbanhomestead.org/about

This is the transformation of an ordinary city home into a productive city farm that produces over 6,000 pounds of organic food annually on 1/10 acre.

What if every family achieved self- sufficiency this way? My immigrant grandparents survived this way. What a wonderful reinstatement of nurturing our land for nourishment in exchange. Great inspiration for those who want to connect with the earth.

Yeah this is for sure one of the thinks that have more sence nowadays..
But there had to be major changes in the City Live so that would be possible in a grand scale.
Changes that I do not imagine in a big city, I imagine a crash in a big city beeing much more likely..
What would make eaven more sence to me is moving to the Country sid, to places where Nature still has it`s freedom, and grow food over there...
