Homestead Grown: Recent Episodes
iknowdoug
We exist to help families source and produce food at scale.
Our vision is to create a thriving network of self-sustainable homesteaders and small-scale family farms who are actively working towards a more resilient and sustainable food system. We envision hyper-local communities coming together to share resources and knowledge, supporting each other in our efforts to grow healthy, nutritious food using natural and environmentally friendly practices. By empowering individuals and families to become producers of their own food, we strive to increase access to fresh, locally grown produce while also promoting environmental stewardship and community building.
There’s Money in them there Trees. The fruit from trees and bushes are important to a balanced diet. The Grow Model Food system assumes a home orchard or at least sourcing from a hyper-local orchard. There is nothing as frustrating as planting your orchard only to have a few hyper-local deer wipe you out in one evening.

From the first hunter gatherers to the central city planners of the ancient world, economic models continually evolve. Models that once serve the masses tend to coalesce into the condensed power of a few, until inevitable change gives birth to a new model that again serves the masses. This cycle is seen throughout history and will most likely continue for generations to come. And while central planners and big everything had it’s day, the winds of change are again blowing.
