For a host of reasons, I do try to limit my travel. But I also do give talks, and I do do interviews, and this corner of the blog will tell you what's upcoming. If you'd like me to come speak, send me an email at jewishfarmer@gmail.com, and we'll see if we can work things out.
My Next Talk:
On February 16 at 3pm, I'm giving a FREE talk on the basics of food storage - why and how - at my friend Joy's store, The Olde Corner Store 133 Factory, Gallupville NY 12073. 518-872-1610. All are welcome, and Joy will be offering a discount to anyone who wants to get started in storing bulk foods.
Coming out in the fall of this year, _Depletion and Abundance: Life on the New Home Front_ focuses on how families can adapt to a lower energy, hotter world - and help hold back the worst of the disaster as well.
Coming in Spring '09, _A Nation of Farmers_ co-authored with Aaron Newton explores our current agricultural situation, makes a case for a sustainable future, and draws the connections between our agriculture and our lost democracy.
I'm a 35 year old writer and subsistence farmer, author of two forthcoming books on Peak Oil and Climate Change _Depletion and Abundance: Life on the New Home Front_ (Fall '08) and _A Nation of Farmers (And Cooks)_ (Spring '09) the latter co-authored with Aaron Newton. Both books are forthcoming from New Society Publishers.
I used to run a small, Jewish themed CSA, but now we're concentrating on subsistence agriculture, growing food and teaching others to grow food.
My training was in literature, focusing on the Renaissance and demographic and cultural crises of the 17th century. I've switched to focusing on the demographic and cultural crises of the 21st century for the moment, but retain an interest in all things literary.
In my spare time (of which there isn't much), my husband Eric and I are raising Eli (7 1/2), Simon (6), Isaiah (4) and Asher (2), and assorted critters and livestock, building an agrarian future.
Hello Sharon! I very much enjoyed your rebuttal over at the Drum. I'm not sure what to think of Stuart's,"Fallacy of Reversibility". Of course, I don't think this is feasible in our present environment. However, he has a strong point when he asks us,"So why do you industrialize a society is that reversible process?" This is a very good question especially after using example that we cannot redo much of what is already done...
Yooper - Well if we succeed at reversing some aspects of industrialization, then it was a (partially) reversible process. If we don't then maybe it was non-reversible or maybe we just failed to reverse it.
Personally I'm not really sure if it IS a reversable process but that doesn't stop me from trying to reverse some of the aspects I dislike. This seems like a fair question, but a question that can only be even partially answered in retrospect. -Brian M.
Wow, that sounds like quite the breakfast adventure! On a different note, if you're feeling under the weather from all that tea-spitting, have you tried using a doctor finder to locate a nearby healthcare provider? It's always good to have a reliable resource on hand for unexpected medical needs. Stay healthy!

Thanks, yooper
That and her post today got me going, too. Hilarious.
Well, I didn't spit tea but sure came close to spitting coffee on my monitor. Too funny!
Her post today along with the comments on Greenpa and outhouse offsets about made me pull a muscle laughing so hard.
Between the two of you, I could get injured! But in a good way!
