Built a home in 90 days! This is what it looks like finished~ The Arcane Bear Cave Photo Journey
Awesome to meet fellow homesteaders on here! I started a project called Food is Free Project. After planting a front yard garden and realizing how much I interacted with neighbors, I had a vision wondering what it'd be like if a whole block had front yard gardens.
I felt the call and got together with neighbors and friends and we built raised bed gardens out of salvaged wooden pallets and within 3 months, 19 of the 30 houses on our block had a front yard garden.
The idea was that we could swap harvests with each other to build community. After blogging about it, the project went open source and I encouraged others to take our ideas and make them better.
Now over 350 cities around the world have started Food is Free Projects and are growing and sharing food with #foodisfree to spread the inspiration. :)
