(9,126 posts)Even the monastery. I often daydream about owning an asparagus & artichoke farm in Northern California. Or pumpkins which I find endlessly fascinating. Or a vineyard. Glad to hear I'm not the only one.
But it did make me think about what community gardening could be in this country. I also shake my head that humans are so modernized they go to the gym to expend extra calories that are supposed to be used for things like hunting and gathering, farming and building. I also have this crazy notion that the rise of fundamentalism has come from our collective loneliness and longing for community. We could and should help each other in so many ways. Instead of a company store, a community store.
It's a crazy dream and one I don't see coming any time soon. But I wonder if someday people will get their act together and look at us as fools.
