Food is Free Project: The Open Source Teaching Farm

The Food is Free Project teaches you how to meet your neighbors, grow food together, and open the doors to collaboration and connection in your community. Food brings us together so let's meet in the garden and make a difference.

We're losing the headquarters of the Food is Free Project to Austin's growing development. We're asking for $250,000 to find and build a permanent HQ for the project to train leaders and youth. We'll be filming every step of the way as our new farm unfolds and sharing how-to videos to spread the inspiration and education. Thank you so much for your support! Every dollar adds up.

On our next farm we'll demonstrate farming and natural building methods, as well as showcase artists, music, theater and workshops. We're excited to create a space that brings people together, experiments with new ideas and pushes the boundaries of what we think is possible. We want to revive your childlike wonder!

Tiny house crowdfunding campaign—let's bless Evelyn with a home

As many of you know, freelance writing doesn’t pay all that much. But as a single mom, it has helped me to stay at home with my daughter, Evelyn, who has a seizure disorder and significant developmental delays—both of which are linked to a genetic malfunction. I've also had the freedom to write about what I love, which is an absolute blessing!

Needless to say, a stable home is very important for Evelyn. In light of this, a very dear friend has started a fundraiser for us. It’s a crowdfunding campaign for a modest tiny house. The beauty of these fundraisers is that every donation given (whether $5 or beyond) can make a huge impact through the power of numbers. By sharing this post and spreading the word, you can help the campaign reach its goal.
