Cover the dough with the bowl and let rest for 20 minutes. Combine the 1 cup of sugar and the cinnamon, then set aside. Punch the dough down and divide in half. Roll out one half, on the floured surface, to a 14 X 7-inch rectangle. Brush with the melted butter and sprinkle with half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Beginning at the narrow end, roll up tightly like a jelly roll. Press the edges to seal and fold the ends under. Place in a greased 8 1/2 X 4 1/2 X 2 1/2-inch loaf pan. Repeat for the second half.

McDonald’s Secret Recipes : Egg McMuffin
McDonald’s Egg McMuffin Recipe
This is a PER sandwich recipe :
Ingredients:
* 1 large grade A egg
* 1 english muffin
* Butter, REAL butter
* 1 slice American cheese (real...not processed cheese food)
* 1 slice Canadian bacon
* 1 “12x12” sheet of wax paper
* Non Stick Cooking Spray
SPECIAL TOOLS:
You need an egg ring. Find one at you’re favorite cooking specialty store.
COOKING Egg McMuffin:
* Pre-heat an electric griddle to 275 degrees. Toast your english muffin by laying both sides face down on the griddle and applying pressure. This takes about 1 to 1.5 minutes. (they should be medium brown) Set aside.
* Lay your egg ring on the pre-heated grill. Spray with Pam to prevent sticking. Crack the egg and pour into egg ring on the grill. Poke the yolk with a sharp instrument so it flows.
* Butter both toasted halves of the english muffin liberally with melted butter. Put a slice of American cheese on the bottom half.
* About 2 1/2 minutes after you started cooking the egg, the whites should firm up, and the yolk should still be a bit “liquidy”. Carefully remove the ring, leaving the egg on the griddle. (you may have to “slice” around the edges if it sticks)
* Very carefully turn the egg over, and lay one slice of Canadian bacon on the griddle.
* After about 30-45 seconds, “flip” the Canadian bacon, and remove the egg, placing it on the bottom half (cheesed half) of the english muffin.
* Put the Canadian bacon on top, and cover with the top of the english muffin.
* Wrap in pre-cut wax paper just like the hambugrer recipes. Let stand 5 minutes, then microwave 12 second on high, and eat.

McDonald’s Secret Recipes : “OLD-SCHOOL” CHEESEBURGER
McDonald’s “OLD-SCHOOL” CHEESEBURGER Recipe
Cook the burgers using the regular hamburger recipe and place one THIN slice of american cheese on the crown side before adding meat patty. Don’t use Kraft singles or Velveeta. (or anything termed as “American processed cheese FOOD) Use only real American cheese. That is KEY ! Please Note : Most slices of American cheese are too big for McDonald’s cheeseburgers. So take about 1/4” off two edges to make a smaller square.
McDonald’s Bacon Double-Cheeseburger
Ingredients:
* 2 prepared beef patties
* 1 prepared bun
* 2 American cheese slices
* 1 slice Oscar Mayer Ready Made bacon
Prepare the beef patties and buns as directed in the regular hamburger recipe. Dress the bun the same way. Microwave the pre-cooked bacon for about 15-20 seconds, tear it in half, and lay the pieces side by side on the dressed crown. Follow that with one slice of cheese. Put cooked beef patty #1 on top of the cheese, add another slice of cheese and then beef patty #2. Add the toasted heel and wrap in a 12”x16” sheet of waxed paper. (see cooking regular hamburgers for wrapping directions) Let sit for 5-7 minutes, then microwave (still wrapped) for 15 seconds until hot.

McDonald’s Secret Recipes : BIG MAC Special Sauce
BIG MAC Special Sauce
INGREDIENTS :
* 1/4 cup KRAFT Miracle Whip
* 1/4 cup mayonnaise
* 2 Tablespoons,heaping, WISHBONE deluxe french salad dressing (the orange stuff)
* 1/2 Tablespoon HEINZ sweet relish
* 2 teaspooons, heaping, VLASIC dill pickle relish (Heinz dill relish also works)
* 1 teaspoon sugar
* 1 teaspoon dried, minced onion
* 1 teaspoon white vinegar
* 1 teaspoon ketchup
* 1/8 teaspoon salt
Mix everything very well in a small container. There better be no streaks! Microwave 25 seconds, and stir well again. Cover, and refrigerate at LEAST 1 hour before using. ( to allow all of the flavors to “meld”. ) Makes nearly 1 cup...enough for about 8 Big Macs.
Cooking BIG MAC
INGREDIENTS :
(this is a per sandwich recipe)
* 1 -regular sized sesame seed bun
* 1 -regular sized plain bun
* 2 -previously frozen regular beef patties
* 2 -tablespoons Big Mac sauce
* 2 -teaspoons reconstituted onions
* 1 -slice real American cheese
* 2 -hamburger pickle slices
* 1/4 Cup -shredded iceberg lettuce
COOKING:
Discard the crown half of the regular bun, retaining the heel. The cooking method for the Big Mac is basically the same as the regular burgers, only the bun toasting method is slightly different. In the Big Mac’s case you toast the bottom (heel) first. Do this along with the extra heel. (this will be your middle bun.)
Cook the two-all-beef-patties just like the regular burgers. After the bun parts are toasted, put 1 tablespoon of “Mac sauce” on each of the heels.(toasted side.) Then add 1/8 cup shredded lettuce to each.On the true bottom bun, place one thin slice of American cheese on top of the lettuce. On the extra “heel”, the middle bun, place two pickle slices on top of the lettuce. Toast the “crown” (top) of the bun also. When the meat patties are done, place them one at a time on both prepared buns. Stack the middle bun on top of the bottom bun, and put the crown on top.
For proper “aging”, or “Q-ing”, ...wrap the finished Big Mac® in a 12”x18” sheet of waxed paper as follows:
* Center the burger, right side up, on the waxed paper. Fold the “long” ends of the paper up over the top. (It will resemble a tube with the burger in the center.)
* Fold the two remaining ends underneath. Wrap snug, but don’t squish it like the regular burgers.
* Let sit 5-8 minutes, allowing the flavors to “meld”.
* Microwave, still wrapped, 15 seconds on high.

Corn Bread © ejmorris 2000,2001,2002,2004
Ingredients makes 1 loaf
1½ c cornmeal
3 Tbsp olive oil
1½ c boiling water
¼ c lukewarm water
1 Tbsp active dry yeast
1 tsp of honey (optional)
½ c water
3 - 3½ c unbleached allpurpose flour
1¾ tsp salt
Preparation
1. Put the cornmeal (coarsely ground meal from dried corn aka maize) and oil into a large mixing bowl. Add the boiling water and stir well. Set aside to cool until just warm.
2. In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in ¼ c of lukewarm water (I added about 1 tsp of honey). Stir the dissolved yeast into the cooled cornmeal mixture and blend well. Stir in ½ c water and add all but ½ c of the flour, blending well to form a dough. You don’t have to add all the flour. You know it’s enough when the dough comes away from the side of the bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic and let sit on the counter for about 20 minutes.
3. Turn the dough out onto a floured board (use some of the last ½ c of flour). Sprinkle the salt overtop the dough. Wash and dry the mixing bowl. Adding as little extra flour as possible, knead for 10 or 15 minutes. The dough may be rather sticky. If necessary, sprinkle a little flour to form dough into a ball. Put it in the clean bowl; cover it with a damp cloth; let rise in a no draught place for about an hour, until it has doubled in size. Then, deflate dough, knead for about 5 minutes. Return it to bowl, cover it, let it rise until doubled again. Knead once more for a minute or two. Form the dough into one long log (or two small ones). Place on a cornmealed pan. Cover and let rise for about 40 minutes or until doubled in size.
4. Thirty minutes before you are going to bake, turn oven to 400F. Put water into a broiling pan and place it on the bottom rack of the oven.
5. Optional step: Slash the top(s) with a very sharp knife at an almost horizontal angle. Do this only if the bread has risen to almost half. If it has risen higher, the bread has a tendency to fall if slashed.
6. Spray the bread liberally with water. Bake the bread on the second lowest rack at 350F for 45 to 50 minutes or until it is hollow sounding on the bottom.
7. Turn off the oven. Put the finished bread back in the oven and leave with the door ajar for 5 or 10 minutes. Remove to cool on cooling racks. Wait til the bread is cool before cutting it.
adapted from a recipe in SUNDAYS AT MOOSEWOOD RESTAURANT by the Moosewood Collective published by Simon&Schuster/Fireside 1990
If there is any bread left the next day, it makes terrific Stovetop Dressing (stuffing) and is also excellent sliced thinly and grilled on the barbecue. Spray the grilled bread with olive oil and lay grilled meat on top.
Uneaten bread should be stored at room temperature rather than refrigerated. (the refrigerator causes the bread to go stale faster) Bread can also be stored in the freezer - double bagged airtight plastic. Take it out of the freezer and leave it in the bag until the bread has thawed. To reheat the bread, turn the oven to 500F for 5 minutes or so. Turn the oven OFF. Put the bread in the oven for ten minutes.

Italian French Stick Bread © llizard aka ejm 2000,2001,2002
adapted from recipe for Starter Dough Method Italian Pane Francese in The Village Baker by Joe Ortiz and various recipes in The Italian Baker by Carol Field
Ingredients
Starter Dough:
½ Tbsp active dry yeast
2 c lukewarm water
2 c unbleached all-purpose flour
Bread:
All of the Starter Dough from the previous step
2 c unbleached all-purpose flour
1½ tsp salt
unbleached all-purpose flour for kneading
sesame seeds (optional)
cornmeal
tray of hot water
Preparation
1. Starter Dough: In a small bowl, mix the yeast in the lukewarm water (do the baby’s bottle test on your wrist) and make sure that it bubbles (about 10 minutes).
2. In a bowl large enough for the starter dough (aka Starter Dough) to triple, add the flour a half a cup at a time mixing it in well with a wooden spoon. When the ingredients have been thoroughly combined, the Starter Dough will be quite soupy. Let the Starter Dough rise, covered, in a no-draught spot on the counter for 8 to 10 hours.
3. Bread: To make the dough, add ½ cup of flour to the Starter Dough. Stir with a wooden spoon. Continue to add all but ½ cup of the remaining flour, ½ cup at a time, stirring all the time. To make a more rustic bread, use ½ c whole wheat flour and 1½ c white flour. You don’t have to add all the flour. You know it’s enough when the dough comes away from the side of the bowl. It will still be quite sticky.
4. Dust the board with some of the last ½ c flour and then scrape the dough out of the bowl. Sprinkle salt over top. Use the extra flour to help you handle the wet dough. Using a dough scraper, knead the dough for 10 to 15 minutes until it is smooth and silky. Scrape away any dough that is on the board. As you knead, add flour a very little at a time to stop it from sticking. The dough will still be quite loose.
5. Put the dough in a lightly floured bowl. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a no-draught place for 1 to 1½ hours. When the dough has doubled, deflate the dough and turn it out onto the board. Divide it in two equal pieces. Shape into rectangles and roll like jelly rolls to make 2 baguettes. Put them on a baking pan that has cornmeal sprinkled on the bottom of the pan. Wet your hands well and rub the dough. Sprinkle sesame seeds over each baguette. Cover with plastic wrap then a damp towel and let rise again to almost double (about 45 minutes).
6. Thirty minutes before you are going to bake, turn oven to 500F. Put water into a broiling pan and place it on the bottom rack of the oven.
7. Slash the top of the baguettes with a very sharp knife at an almost horizontal angle. Spray the baguettes liberally with water. Put bread in oven and immediately turn the oven down to 450F. Bake the bread on the second lowest rack for 30 minutes or until it is hollow sounding on the bottom.
8. Turn off the oven. Put the finished bread back in the oven and leave with the door ajar for 5 or 10 minutes. Remove to cool upended on cooling racks. Wait til the bread is cool before cutting it.
The broiling pan of water in the oven is to create steam at the beginning of the baking time to make very crusty bread.
Uneaten bread should be stored at room temperature rather than refrigerated. (the refrigerator causes the bread to go stale faster) Bread can also be stored in the freezer - double bagged airtight plastic. Take it out of the freezer and leave it in the bag until the bread has thawed. To reheat the bread, turn the oven to 500F for 5 minutes or so. Turn the oven OFF. Put the bread in the oven for ten minutes.

Molasses Fennel Rye Bread © ejmorris 2001, 2002, 2003
from the fabulous Clark’s by the Bay Restaurant (now sadly closed) near Kingston, Ontario - although a rumour has been confirmed that he has opened another restaurant in Kingston itself.
Ingredients makes two loaves
¼ c lukewarm water
2½ tsp active dry yeast
4 tsp sugar
4 Tbsp blackstrap molasses
1¾ c water, room temperature
1 Tbsp fennel seeds
½ tsp ground ginger
1 c rye flour
1 c whole wheat flour
½ c wheat germ
2 c unbleached all purpose flour
1 Tbsp salt
¼ c Thompson raisins
up to ½ c unbleached all purpose flour for kneading
Preparation
1. In a smallish bowl, mix yeast with ¼ c lukewarm water (do the baby’s bottle test on your wrist) and set aside til creamy. (Or if you think the yeast may not be viable, until the mixture starts to bubble. Put the bowl into the *cold oven (with the light turned on if you want)* with the door closed. Let it sit there as you start to make the bread dough. It sometimes takes more than 10 minutes to start foaming.
2. Meanwhile, in a bowl large enough for the dough to double, pour the rest of the water. Stir in sugar and molasses. (If the molasses is stiff because of a chilly kitchen, use warm water instead of room temperature) Add fennel seeds and ground ginger. Dump in flours and wheat germ and stir with a wooden spoon until the flour is mostly absorbed.
3. Add the yeast mixture (it should be quite foamy - if it is not after a period of 20 minutes have passed, either the yeast is dead or the water was too hot or far too cold. Check the due date on your yeast container. If the date hasn’t passed, try again.) stir to form a rough dough. Cover the bowl with plastic and let sit on the counter for about 20 minutes.
4. Put some of the ½ c flour for kneading on a wooden board. Turn the dough out onto the board. Sprinkle the salt overtop the dough. Wash and dry the mixing bowl. Hand knead the dough 10 to 15 minutes, adding small amounts of additional flour if dough is sticky. When the dough is springy and silky to the touch, knead in raisins. Form the dough into a ball and put it in the clean bowl; cover it with a damp cloth (or plastic wrap); let rise in a no draught place at room temperature (or in the cold oven with the light turned on if you want) for about an hour, until it has doubled in size. Gently deflate dough. Recover with a damp cloth and allow to rise until doubled again.
5. Gently turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board; cut it in half with a dough scraper if you have one, with a knife if you don’t.
6. Shape into two round balls and place them (not touching) on a lightly oiled pan or a cornmeal dusted peel or on parchment paper. Dust the tops with flour. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until double in size. (about an hour)
7. Thirty minutes before you are going to bake, turn oven to 400F. Put water into a broiling pan and place it on the bottom rack of the oven.
8. Slash the top of the balls with a very sharp knife. Liberally spray the tops with water. Put bread in oven and immediately turn the oven down to 350F. Bake the bread on the second lowest rack for 35-40 (I bake it for 45-50) minutes or until it is hollow sounding on the bottom.
9. Remove to cool upended on cooling racks. Wait til the bread is cool before cutting it. If you like to eat warm bread, reheat the bread after it has cooled.
This is not a particularly sweet bread and is excellent with soup and/or salad. It’s wonderful with cheddar cheese. It also goes very well with Baked Beans.
Uneaten bread should be stored at room temperature rather than refrigerated. (the refrigerator causes the bread to go stale faster) Bread can also be stored in the freezer - double bagged airtight plastic. Take it out of the freezer and leave it in the bag until the bread has thawed. To reheat the bread, turn the oven to 500F for 5 minutes or so. Turn the oven OFF. Put the bread in the oven for ten minutes.

When I was a kid, they grew all over San Diego.
Even later, some of the older homes still had a tree or two.
You never see or hear of them today.
Maybe you can grow one from seeds.

A couple facts that I had not let float to the top.
My husband was a POW In germany/WW2, since he got out in poor health, they sent him stateside to guard german prisoners, in Montana as I recall.
We were bringing the german POWs here to camps, even then....
And of course the Japanese/Americans went to camps in WW2.
And there was a talk show host on KDWN radio for many years, his father was a german POW, in Minnesota, his mother met him, by talking to him through the prison fence and when the war was over, he stayed or returned here to marry her.
So the camps have been around for a long time.
If you want to read real torture in POW camps, read what the U.S. did to the Southern men, in the Union POW camps.
It always made me want to join the Southern Army and fight the north, again.

Window Farms
window farm-iconic3
We received an email this morning from our friends Britta and Rebecca in NYC saying that WindowFarms now has a new web site and how-to pdfs of window farm plans:
Window Farms are suspended, hydroponic, modular, low-energy, high-yield edible food gardens built using low-impact or recycled local materials. This site is the online community of window farmers, where we share our development processes and design innovations.
These vertical gardens, located in windows throughout the cityscape, are intended to inspire others to design and implement their own window farms, creating a network of urban food production. Signs in the windowfarms will challenge people to create their own and direct them to a website where we can all share photos, plans, designs, and information. Together, we can derive viable methods for growing food under the local conditions of our own homes.

To learn more about Window Farms, see windowfarms.org.
To learn how to build your own, get started with How-To instructions, or start reading posts from other window farmers throughout this site.
Please share your design process with the other farmers by joining the site and sharing your design and development process.
If you would like to join the site, email us at britta@windowfarms.org. Tell us a little about yourself and your planned window farm.
You can also participate by commenting on other peoples projects, answering questions, and sharing resources.
There are interesting links on this blog for gardening.
This window garden photo, makes me think it would not be that difficult to build this one and is it really old soda bottles they are using?

Monday, July 27th, 2009
We first wrote about Veggie Trader back in March in Swap What Youve Got For What You Want. In a nutshell, Veggie Trader is an free resource for bringing good food and good people together. From their web site:
Using Veggie Trader is free and easy. It works like classified advertising. You post a listing describing the excess produce you have and what youd like in return, and then you wait for a response

Pickled Yellow Wax Beans with Fresh Dill
Recipe from Eating Local: The Cooks Companion from Land to Table by Sur La Table with Janet Fletcher, publishing in Spring 2010 by Andrews McMeel Publishing
Equipment: Canning Kettle with Rack, 1-quart Wide-Mouth Canning Jar, Saucepan, Jar Lifters, Cooling Rack
Makes 1 quart
Winters are long in Minnesota, making a well-stocked pantry all the more valuable. At the Nitty Gritty Dirt Farm in the tiny town of Harris, Robin Raudabaugh transforms her slender yellow wax beans into what old-timers call dilly beans, pickling them with garlic, red chile, and clusters of flowering dill. The neatly packed jars are stockpiled in a crawl space under the house until time works its magic, mellowing the vinegary brine. The crisp beans, served with a sandwich, bring memories of summer to a winter lunch.
1 pound yellow wax beans, as straight as possible
1 cluster of fresh dill flower heads
1 large clove garlic, peeled and halved
1 small dried red chile
1-1/2 cups white wine vinegar
1-1/2 cups water
1 tablespoon kosher or sea salt
1. Fill a canning kettle with enough water to cover the top of a 1-quart jar resting on the preserving rack. Bring to a boil. Wash a 1-quart, wide-mouth jar with hot, soapy water; rinse well and put it upside down on a clean dishtowel.
2. Remove the tips of the beans and, if necessary, trim the beans so they will fit upright in a 1-quart wide-mouth jar. Fill the clean jar with the beans, dill, garlic, and chile, packing the beans in tightly but neatly.
3. Combine the vinegar, water, and salt in a small saucepan and bring just to a boil, stirring to dissolve the salt. Pour the hot liquid over the beans, leaving 1/2 inch of headspace. Top with a new lid and close tightly.
4. Place the jar on the preserving rack and lower the rack into the canning kettle. If the water doesnt cover the jar, add boiling water from a tea kettle. Cover the canning kettle and boil 10 minutes. Using the jar lifters, transfer the jar to a rack to cool. Do not touch the jar again until you hear the pop that indicates that the lid has sealed. Cool completely. Confirm that the jar has sealed by pressing on the lid with your finger; if the lid gives, the jar has not sealed and the contents should be refrigerated and used within 1 week. If the jar has sealed, store it in a cool, dark place for at least 1 month or up to 1 year before opening. Refrigerate after opening.

We received an email today from Skip in Santa Cruz:
Check out our meetup: http://www.meetup.com/santa-cruz-sustainable-living/. Loads of community and events. Tonights event (which you can read about even after the fact) is a potluck and market table. The market table is a really important feature/idea.
Looks like a fantastic group of like-minded folks creating community. Other meetups from past and future: Water Harvesting Work Party and a Solar Cooking class.
Thank you for sharing, Skip! Wed love to hear from more of you.

She read from her book and chatted with Evan. As a fellow urban farmer I was eager to learn from Ms. Carpenters experience. I wished she chatted more veggie and less slaughter. At one point Fern whispered to me, guess its not very exciting to talk about growing squash from seed or something like that.
Overall it was a fun outing. Primarily because I was accompanied by a couple of amazing vegan/vegetarian uber gardeners, Fern of Life on the Balcony and Milli of Modern Sustainability.

The New Face of Gardening-Deal!
I always try to figure out my place in the gardening world when I attend events like these. Would the older generation of gardeners take me seriously? A foul-mouthed, tattooed, punk that loves everything urban farming related and knows a thing or two about growing vegetables.
If you take a close look at the first picture I dont necessarily fit into the established gardening world. At one point we were reprimanded for taking flash photography. I felt like I was back in Catholic school.
Hold on to your seats were here to stay!

Jardineros (gardeners for my non-Spanish speaking friends), summer has sprung! The tomatoes are rolling in and Ive got eggplant coming out of my ears. In case you didnt notice Ive been absent from the web. Yeah, whats new?
The Wrigley Village Community Garden has been keeping me very busy! Mulch-A-Lot is going down this Saturday, July 25th and were T minus 11 days, August 1st, from the grand opening! Did I mention Ill be giving a seed starting demo to lil farmers in attendance? Me, little kids, and dirt party!
Last week Scott and I had a two hour meeting with the head honchos over at City of Long Beach Dept of Parks, Rec. and Marine (thats a mouthful) regarding our guerrilla gardening. Scott has big plans; Im selfish and focusing on my little hood. The good news is the city officials are into it and willing to help us! Who knew, cooperation. Scott, youre a wise man!
In between all the politico stuff I took a much needed break and had the pleasure of meeting two cool ladies. Through the magic of the web I met newly minted Master Gardener Milli. Perched on a hill her garden is prolific and her energy contagious. She took me on a field trip like no other, Farmlab. It was a moving and inspirational experience. This snapshot is exactly the moment I fought back tears.

Farmlab-What Heaven Looks Like
Picture it, lively Mexican music in the background, Im eagerly speaking Spanish with everyone thats willing to stop and talk to me, Im gleaming with joy that I can actually carry a conversation in Spanish, bags and bags of Mexican medicinal herb seeds are genoursly being doled out, and outside, beside a bountiful garden with its own tranquil music, a performance venue. I think I could live here.
Im really greatful for Milli. She gave me the shot in the arm and the kick in the rear I needed. I went home re-energized and focused.
The second chick I met was Lisa, winner of Garden Anywhere book give-a-way. She too shared her garden with me. Visiting other peoples garden made me realize I really need to step up my game. Theyre running circles around me; good job!
In between all that fun Ive attended several community meetings and had a few TV gigs. I have an article deadline looming over my head and a guerrilla gardening workshop with Scott for Clit Fest 2009 to look forward too.
So hang in there with me folks. Much more gardening ahead!

Eight Steps Back to the Land
“Farming must compete actively and vigorously with other potential employers to attract the best people” — so says a report, New Blood, just published by the Royal Agricultural Society of England (RASE). Over the next ten years says its author, Alan Spedding, “Farming needs 60,000 new entrants”. A key problem, we are told, is that agriculture worldwide “is struggling with an outdate image”.
Well — up to a point. In truth, as things stand, farmers might echo the words of Henry V’s foot-soldiers on the eve of Agincourt — “even as men wrack’d upon a strand that seek to be washed off at the next tide”. New Blood came out just before this year’s Royal Show in July which, I found, was upbeat as ever, but is scheduled nonetheless to be the last. The image of farming is indeed “outdated” — but not simply in the way that the RASE author intended. To be sure it is perceived to be too rustic, straws in the hair and rolling rrs — but it is also rightly seen to be too ruthless and too industrial; and it’s the ostensible modernity, built on cheap oil and borrowed cash, that is truly the anachronism. We need farming that can actually feed people without wrecking the rest of the world, and go on doing so. We need a radical shift — away from mere rusticity no doubt, but also away from the industrial and commercial hype.
As for the putative 60,000 — well: that would simply restore the status quo. But the status quo is a disaster. Successive British governments these past 30 years have cut the ranks of farmers to 150,000, with an average age of 60 and with thoughts of retirement. In truth we need about a million more farmers post haste to re-create the agrarian base that is so obviously necessary.
It’s clear, too, that the powers that be — the NFU, the food industry, the government, and even RASE — are not going to do what’s needed. They are not on the case. So again we see that if we give a damn about the future then we, ordinary Joes, have to do what is needed for ourselves — despite the powers that be. Outlandish though the notion may now seem, we have to get back to the land in droves, and on our own initiative. It’ a tall order. But as the accompanying article suggests, it is all theoretically do-able — and a great deal is happening already.

The Campaign Manifesto: A People’s Takeover of the World’s Food Supply
If we take the future seriously we need to re-think food production from first principles. We need “Enlightened Agriculture” — farming designed expressly to feed everybody, well and forever, without wrecking the rest of the world. This is eminently possible — the present failure is not only tragic, it is a disgrace. Enlightened Agriculture respects the bedrock laws of biology, and common principles of morality. It does not, as now, seek to override the laws and re-define morality to fit the market.
But agriculture that is designed to feed everyone forever is quite different in structure and technique from present-day, industrial farming, which is intended primarily and indeed vitually exclusively to maximise profit.
So the “powers-that-be” — present-day western governments, corporates, banks, and their attendant intellectuals and experts — are not going to introduce such agriculture. If we want farming that can feed our children and grandchildren, we have to create it for ourselves. We need a people’s movement, leading to a people’s takeover of of the whole food supply.
This is what the Campaign for Real Farming is intended to achieve.

Linen paper is easy to make from the linen tow that is the waste after combing out the line linen for spinning. The technique is very similiar to felting or making silk fusion/silk paper. So if you’ve made felt or silk paper before — linen paper is easier — no agitation and no textile medium needed.
You need:
Clean linen tow — remove all the shive and chaff that you can because the hard stems will prevent the paper from binding together. The more clean tow that you can incorporate, the finer and more stable your paper will be. For an 8 1/2 by 11 sheet of paper you need a lot of linen tow — 200 grams. Once you have the technique mastered you can add other fibers, too, like silk threads, petals, seeds, shredded paper, etc. Add these other fibers sparingly so that the integrity of the paper is not compromised.
A fiberglass window screen cut to size. It should be 2 inches taller than your want your paper to be and twice as wide plus 2 inches. You will fold the screen over the linen tow to enable you to wet it out.
A sponge to dampen the paper and to blot up excess water.
Water in a spray bottle.
An iron, pressing cloth and ironing board or protected surface.
A wooden or marble rolling pin.
Begin by opening the window screen and lay out one layer of flax tow, being careful to cover the screen by laying the tow in one direction, very similiar to laying out wool fibers in preparation for felting. Leave a one inch area free all around the window screen. This will allow your paper to spread once it is wetted out.
continues..........LOL, she is teaching this at the farm today,
So pick me up on the way to Canada, you should be able to land your space ship in my front yard, for that is the only way we can get there in time....
