Here’s a great interview via transitionculture.org about growing fruits vs. veggies. You can come to your own conclusions, but I’m convinced it’s time to plant the hell outta raspberries and perennial fruit producing trees and bushes. Mmmmm strawberries. What about pineapples in Colorado? I’ll have to look into it.

Milk prices are up and going higher. How much does a gallon cost these days? I sure can’t keep track. Let’s assume $3.50/ gallon. You go through two gallons a week and that’s over $350 a year. Do you have a big family and go through four gallons? That’s over $700. How ’bout cheese and butter, do you use those? Add to the tally. I was just pricing Holstein Heifer dairy cows and discovered the average cost was between $1500 and $1900. It might be worth it to buy the cow, ’cause the milk certainly isn’t free these days. Of course, cows need to eat (grass) and drink (25 gallons H2O per day). Maybe a couple goats would be more appropriate.

Because everybody in Colorado should have at least one solar device, no?

Now, growing chickens is a snap thanks to the Eglu from Omlet. Plus, you don’t have to build the coop.

This guy has an interesting perspective on money, credit, inflation, flatulance, the government, and how to act really crazy.
