Thanks for such a warm welcome, @minismallholding! I am in heaven connecting with so many like-minded people around the world at once. Thinking globally/acting locally means that we must network together in cooperatives of many different varieties! I will be reading and writing about many aspects of sustainable living to help improve all of our lives ~ it truly does permeate every individual and community choice as we tune in to the consciousness of natural harmony. I also want to tell @jacobpeacock thanks for helping to show folks in the US we really can still be minimal in this disposable society!! I love that he's documenting his adventures for others!
