Comrades, Babylonians, country(wo)men... Namaste.
So I've never squatted for a place to stay, but I'm sure I will soon enough [as I'm surely not going to be paying for a place to stay, and I don't believe I'll be staying in the woods or under bushes everynight] when I'm going to leave my current location [next fall] and travel until I've seen what I need to see. Then hopefully one day, find some land to reclaim... that is turn it into a "forest farm"/edible landscape and build homes of earth for whoever wishes to come [you may say that sounds quite idealistic, but I know it can be manifested as I see it]
I have however slept on my fair share of rooftops, sheds, under & on porches.. but for the majority of my life I've had family to stay with until last year when I moved into a vacant trailer my grandfather had.
A close friend & ally, love and myself have been reclaiming the yard which already had an awesomely established pear tree, two fig bushes, and 3 grape vines before we moved in. We have been growing organic vegetables, herbs & medicines as well as planting many new fruit trees in the yard.
At the moment all that we consume from the store [besides what is shared with us by friends & family] is olive oil & rice [which have been payed for by a family member's leftover EBT credit], also we occasionaly dumpster vegetables, fruits, breads/bagels & granola bars.. what I'm getting at is that for the most part we are growing/foraging our own foods straight from Gaia herself.
I'm learning and applying as much practical skills as I feel necessary/appropriate as we wean ourselves off of the bleeding synthetic nipple that we call capitalism.
I cannot recall how I came across this site, as it were months ago, but I don't have much else to say at the moment, just figured I should say greetings. Hope to meet ya'
much love
