For me this quest began with family and friends. When I was very young my mother went to the local food co-op distribution center; with friends I spent time picking the local fruits ripe from the vine, bush or tree; with dad we planted and raised our vegetables (and grew the tallest sunflower in town); I fondly helped grandma type up her refunding envelopes; I could go on and on and on. It was all about living the small-town life, living locally.
My surroundings have changed but my roots and drives remain the same. What resources are locally available? Can I support those around me rather than buying new or mass-produced goods? How do I share this exciting information with others? And thus begins my postings on the resources, reuses and deals of TriRhena. Enjoy!
