At this site I share the discoveries my family and I make on our path to grater self-sufficiency. It could be anything from how to build a greenhouse to enjoy 4-season vegetables, how to grow potatoes, how to brew your own beer, make your own cheese, rear your own organic meat, hunt, fish or some of my recipes.
I enjoy sharing these ideas with you, and in the hope that you’ll be able to make use of the ideas yourself and perhaps start on a similar, passionate/crazy path yourself. Growing food for your family is deeply satisfying, and I hope that you will discover how delicious food you grow or rear yourself is.
But I got to thinking that I’d really like to share more than just ideas with you, and so I’ve decided that I’ll send a box of fresh, organically-grown vegetables from my own garden to one person each year as a thank you for subscribing to my Water the Roots email newsletter.
I will ship that to you at my expense anywhere in the Lower 48 US States. If you live outside the Lower 48 States, you can either select someone in the Lower 48, a charity able to accept it in the Lower 48, or I can also give it to our local food bank or food-related charitable organization.
There’s no monetary value to this offer; it’s simply a thank you from my family and our garden to you and your family to thank you for subscribing to my newsletter.
All you need to do is sign-up for my newsletter anywhere on this website and keep an active subscription and once a year I’ll select one person at random and arrange to send a box of organic food from my garden.
