Here's the story of the Food is Free project!

Abolish money!

Texas researchers proposed in 2022 using these sticky natural polymers to clean up water. Now, they’ve found that okra and/or fenugreek extracts attracted and removed up to 90% of microplastics from ocean water, freshwater, and groundwater. www.goodnewsnetwork.org/okra-and-fen...

"A plethora of studies backs up the idea that gardening has numerous benefits: It improves air quality and biodiversity for our environment, reduces stress and increases mindfulness for gardeners, and strengthens our connection to community."

Have you ever heard of "chaos gardening?"

Our squash and cucumbers have sprouted! Pics coming soon!

Folks I need to raise money to keep this project going. If you can offer ANY support, I’d hesigrateful. We need help keeping this work going. Buildsoil.net Venmo.com/buildsoil Ko-fi.com/buildsoil

"We should have better food and more affordable food and more time to prepare and enjoy our food. We need a public option for food and to reclaim cooking and eating and food itself as a basic good that should be provided for all."

Protect your peppers! Don’t plant them outdoors where cucumbers, marrows, potatoes or tomatoes grew last year—they share similar diseases. If those crops had issues, the soil could pass problems on to your new peppers. Rotate crops to keep your plants healthy and productive! #gardening #peppers

There's only about 25 years of topsoil left.

The world produces more than enough #food to feed everyone. Yet it is shamefully misallocated. BigAg firms make more profit by exporting food for animal feed, biofuels, or ultra-processed foods, than selling it to poor people. 1/3 of all food is simply wasted. ipes-food.org/only-politic...

We've ordered our first seeds for the #seedlibrary! Take a look at these classic beefsteak tomatoes! www.rareseeds.com/tomato-class...

We're creating a #seedlibrary for #HuntsvilleAL. What fruits, vegetables, or flowers would you like us to stock?
