Path to Freedom Project- Incredible

Path to Freedom Journal

Incredible example of a urban homestead in California! Fascinates me how much food they are able to produce in such a small space! Be sure to check out the journal pages-- there is incredible pictures and inspiration for how they have things set up, everything from irrigation to cultivation to waste management. The garden pics are incredible....I want my house to do that!!!

I'm trying to figure out what I could incorporate from this project into my own home!

Thanks so much for posting about this. They sound like a very interesting family doing incredible things with their relatively small amount of urban land. 6,000 lbs of produce annually! Wow - very inspiring. I can't wait to really have a good look around this site.
I live not too far from them... I wonder if they'd let me have a look around....
