Hey

Can we turn empty car lots into community markets? can we get with the city councils? is anyone working on this?

Also, my sister may be forclosed on. does anyone know of a phone tree for evictions?

Watts is perfect for a permaculture revolutions similar to what is described in the book sustainability and resistance.

It has a bunch off small local markets, many bike shops and many empty lots for growing. Vegetables might not be an option on some fields.

there is a community garden there also as well as many community organizations.

As soon as I finish my 29 palms and oregon projects around the first of the year i will be taking on some of this stuff.

farm the roads,

Curtis
