It's astounding that running a small farm is essentially illegal. That must change.

As the government seeks to drive the human race into extinction: starving them out by taking the farmland away. Creating diseases and poison drugs are not getting any more attention or money. Farms are needed more than what they are destroying them for!

Keep growing!! I have my garden. I sell produce for a living full time at a small family-owned store as well as receiving Social Security. Independence as well as freedom from medical scams and Insurance Mafia extortion are key to a good life.

Joel is absolutely correct. Government needs to get out of the people's way on farming and much more!

Could you help us Joel? I’m in Mt Jackson, VA and Spanberger has just initiated a 56,000 sq ft Solar Panel Manufacturing plant. They’re want to build 4 more. They’re buying up our farmland in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley. Do you know what I can do?

For starters urge farmers to not sale

I wish I had that power.

The government needs to get out of its need to control. This should be a free country.

They speak with forked tongue: just like they starved out Native Americans, they’re trying to kill their own countrymen by any means necessary. When you deal with the Government, you deal with the Devil.

Thank you for this wonderful story of a self-sustaining, on-going journey. Awesome! Much more though than “a story” because the fruits of this labor are an inspiration that bring life and wholeness and health to humanity!
