Life update and the experiment....

Update! Finally i know....

Most recent news is that we are broke! Yay!
Welcome to a recession ladies and gentleman.
Sooo in light of that fact we have decided to move into the second home on my parents property to save money and help them bring in a little cash to finish fixing the place :) While this was a difficult decision for us to come to we believe it is the best one for our current financial situation and the bleak outlook for next years economy. There are however quite a few perks to living there, one of them being the new kitten we get to adopt and the space we have to grow a garden!

I have been researching a program called The Mittleider Method since last winter and am excited about the possibilities it brings. Dr. Mittleider created the Food For Everyone foundation which is a world wide non profit that teaches people, especially in poor and desolate locations how to grow gardens that produce 5-10 times the amount normally in less space and using HALF the water a traditional garden does! Its pretty revolutionary in my opinion and its incredibly simple.


They have A TON of free information on their website and forums, you have immediate access to Jim Kennard (Dr. Mittleiders successor) to ask questions on the forum and QA about your unique problems too!

Their main site is www.foodforeveryone.org

I just signed up as an affiliate so if after reading their info you wish to purchase any of the books of software sets (which are the best deal) you can come back through the link below and I receive a 40% commission just for telling you about it.....pretty cool if you ask me!

Check it out Here

Since this is the first time we have tried this I have decided to keep a blog recording our progress. We have access to a digital camera now so we should be able to document our progress on it the upcoming year. The address for that is http://themittleiderexperiment.blogspot.com

Happy gardening!

(And yes I know this a random post after so long but....I plead brain fatigue, goodnight!)
