Going Green

Biggest thing for us here at the old homestead is making a gentle path along our way through life. A few few years ago we had the thought what will we be remembered for. I was a work a holic until my health made me slow down. So the kids don't really have many memories of me from their youth. Well we walked into our home and found on the tv a group of leaders in the energy industry saying that in order for them to keep energy at present demand increases they would have to raise the energy costs between one hundred and four hundred percent in the next ten years after changing the channel we seen our president saying that he thought the answer to the USA's deli-ma was to lean towards green energy. After thinking about this it all made sense somehow. Not saying that global warming is the fault of mankind or nature made. But thinking that if as a society we did adopt his plan and put a small system on every home in our state alone the cost would be approximately the same as three of the larger wind turbines create one point five million new jobs and have a total possible output of seven hundred mega watts of power rather than nine.
Our Mission was made. This is what we would do to leave out mark and show our kids and grand kids what we thought was the right thing to do for the future of society.
The plan is to teach the grand kids
 how to do several different things all dealing with going green. What I will attempt to do here is show a series of different things from solar projects, home canning, food dehydration, and growing your own food either in raised bed gardens to stationary apartment balcony gardens vertical and horizontal.
I will make my weekly addition and post photo's of what we have going on here at the old homestead.
