[chime home] [falcon's nest] [Free Speech Online]
a geek's market

geeks grow up, buy houses, and in many cases end up with some nice gardens. when you have a garden which produces food, it often is more than you can eat yourself, so this is the early attempt and having everyone be able to share their surplus and exchange it for other locally grown goods. in some cases, people also volunteer to take surplus and turn it into something yummy (jam, pie, etc). my hope is that we can get enough people involved that every few weeks we could have a get-together where everyone brings surplus and trades it around.

if you want to participate, drop me a note with what you'd like to contribute!
