Weekly Roundup - Living On Nothing Edition Category: Roundups | Comments(15)
Did you hear about the guy that lives on nothing? No seriously, he lives on zero dollars a day. Meet Daniel Suelo, who lives in a cave outside Moab, Utah. Suelo has no mortgage, no car payment, no debt of any kind. He also has no home, no car, no television, and absolutely no “creature comforts.” But he does have a lot of creatures, as in the mice and bugs that scurry about the cave floor he’s called home for the last three years.
To us, Suelo probably sounds a little extreme. Actually, he probably sounds very extreme. After all, I suspect most of you reading this are doing so under the protection of some sort of man-made shelter, and with some amount of money on your person, and probably a few needs for money, too. And who doesn’t need money unless they have completely unplugged from the grid? Still, it’s an amusing story about a guy who rejects all forms of consumerism as we know it.
The Frugal Roundup
How to Brew Your Own Beer and Maybe Save Some Money. A fantastic introduction to home brewing, something I’ve never done myself, but always been interested in trying. (@Generation X Finance)
Contentment: A Great Financial Principle. If I had to name one required emotion for living a frugal lifestyle it would be contentment. Once you are content with your belongings and your lot in life you can ignore forces attempting to separate you from your money. (@Personal Finance by the Book)
Use Energy Star Appliances to Save On Utility Costs. I enjoyed this post because it included actual numbers, and actual total savings, from someone who upgraded to new, energy star appliances. (@The Digerati Life)
Over-Saving for Retirement? Is it possible to “over-save” for retirement? Yes, I think so. At some point I like the idea of putting some money aside in taxable investments outside of retirement funds, to be accessed prior to traditional retirement age. (@The Simple Dollar)
40 Things to Teach My Kids Before They Leave Home. A great list of both practical and philosophical lessons to teach your kids before they reach the age where they know everything. I think that now happens around 13 years-old. (@My Supercharged Life)
Index Fund Investing Overview. If you are looking for a place to invest with high diversification and relatively low fees (for broader index funds with low turnover), index funds are a great place to start. (@Money Smart Life)
5 Reasons To Line Dry Your Laundry. My wife and I may soon be installing a clothesline in our backyard. In many neighborhoods they are frowned upon - one of the reasons I don’t like living in a neighborhood. I digress. One of our neighbors recently put up a clothesline, and we might just follow his lead. (@Simple Mom)

Still grieving over the loss of my sister. Please keep us informed and most certainly, prayers are up.<<<
Good sisters are hard to find and harder to part with, I am sure you still miss your sister and always will.
The first tests for Diana, did not give a clear answer, so in
about 6 weeks, they will do a larger biopsy. She has to wait for her granddaughter’s college break, so she will have someone to stay with her, or stay in the hospital for a week.
Thank you for your prayers, they will help.
And we are looking into alternate methods of healing and herbal remedies.<<<<
I am glad your surgery worked so well.
These two sites looked interesting, I have not checked them out and did like what I read for my search.

Welcome to the thread, glad you found us.
You will find folks here are growing everything they can, an amazing amount of foods.
For me, no garden this year.
Have you considered a solar greenhouse, attached to your home is best.
Even in snow, they will still grow, if angled correctly to catch the southern sun.
LOL, a greenhouse, is my answer to all types of growing, here they work, for the wind has never missed a day of blowing.
Wishing you a Happy Easter...<<<
Thank you.
A belated Happy Easter to you and your lovely wife.
I always think of you for the odd ball breads, LOL>

Could urban food production
be a possible solution? Join us for a special edition of Australia Talks recorded
at the Queensland State Library with contributors to the latest Griffith Review:

Author Novella Carpenter starts a suburban farm
I’m ready to announce it to the world: I’m starting another urban farm. It’s in
San Lorenzo (okay, maybe it’s a suburban farm...). One acre, a barn, with fruit
trees and fields. My farm partner, Abeni, brought some of the goats up today and
installed them in their new digs. Read about it here, at the new blog, LaBrieFamilyFarm.
City buses feature photos of local food and farmers

Organic EQIP Sign-up Extended in Nebraska
http://www.nebraskaagconnection.com/story-state.php?Id=226&yr=2010
Steve Chick, state conservationist for the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in Nebraska announced the cutoff date for the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) Organic Initiative has been extended to April 16, 2010. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) NRCS, which administers EQIP, has set aside $1.5 million in EQIP funds to help Nebraska organic producers and those who are transitioning to organic production. Applications for the EQIP Organic Initiative are taken continuously throughout the year, but to be considered for Fiscal Year 2010 funding, producers need to have an application signed and returned to their local NRCS office by April 16, 2010. Funding selections will be made on or before May 1, 2010, from those applications received.

Economics of Transitioning to Organic Crop Production Studied in Indiana
http://www.agecon.purdue.edu/extension/pubs/paer/2010/february/alexander.asp
Purdue researchers have released results of a study comparing profitability of conventional and organic grain production. This preliminary study modifies existing organic and conventional crop budgets in an attempt to apply them to typical Indiana farm operations. This will provide Indiana producers with more information regarding their production options, organic transition profitability, and optimal transition rotations.
Pastured Poultry Producers in Georgia Needed for Survey
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/TDZRCGT
Georgia Organics is collecting data to support the development of processing options for small-scale poultry producers, through a grant provided by Farm Aid. This questionnaire is for farmers currently raising and processing pastured poultry, or for farmers who would like to start raising pastured poultry. Responding farmers should be located in Georgia, or within one hour’s drive from the state line (if located out of Georgia).
Study Evaluates Economic Impact of Farmers’ Markets
http://msucares.com/pubs/publications/p2582.html
To understand the economic impact of farmers’ markets in the state, Mississippi State University’s Department of Agricultural Economics and MSU’s chapter of the National Agricultural Marketing Association (NAMA) conducted a survey of farmers’ market facilities in Mississippi in September 2009. Results from the survey (http://msucares.com/pubs/publications/p2582.pdf) (PDF/155KB) confirm the authors’ opinions that farmers’ markets in small- and medium-size communities produce greater economic returns for vendors while filling a void in the demand for fresh produce in the area. Farmers’ markets provide major benefits to local communities engaged in economic development.
Researchers Study Impact of Increased Fruit and Vegetable Production
http://www.leopold.iastate.edu/news/newsreleases/2010/033010_midwest.html
Expanding the fruit and vegetable industry in the upper Midwest could have a huge economic impact in the region. A new analysis from the Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture at Iowa State University in collaboration with regional partners estimated potential state and regional economic values associated with increased production of fresh fruit and vegetables in a six-state area. The study included two scenarios and was conducted by Iowa State economics researcher David Swenson and included data from Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin. The results of the analysis can be found in “Selected Measures of the Economic Values of Increased Fruit and Vegetable Production and Consumption in the Upper Midwest.” (http://www.leopold.iastate.edu/research/marketing_files/midwest.html)

On April 5, Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Chief Dave White announced the availability of $61.2 million for Agricultural Water Enhancement Program (AWEP) projects. This funding will help producers conserve surface and ground water and improve water quality on agricultural land. AWEP projects are implemented by NRCS entering into partnership agreements with eligible entities. NRCS works with these partners to help landowners plan and implement conservation practices in project areas established through the agreements.
