Buy nothing?

#BuyNothing is definitely a hashtag to get behind for the upcoming holidays   make your own stuff, reuse, recycle, but don't buy into the big buying spree 😬 #consumerism #dontdoit

Boycotts are one of the best ways to get Wall Street's attention. Making money off of you is all they care about. If you don't give them your money and tell them why, they will stop supporting politicians and laws that hurt their bottom line.

So don't buy consumer gifts this holiday season. Have fun, have experiences, make stuff yourself, then eat and drink and be merry. And keep your money in your pocket.

Today was a busy day!

We held our regular Solidarity Market where members of the community bring things they don't need anymore and people can come take what they need for free. It's always a great time, and everyone appreciates keeping things out of the landfill while reducing the need to buy new things for themselves. We also get to know everyone who comes - they're not anonymous recipients but new friends.

Our #HamRadio group also had an event today in a local park for a special lesson about antennas where they got to build an antenna themselves from a fishing pole and speaker wire. Such fun!

We have been gifted some pawpaw, fig, and peach tree seedlings and our food gardening team is now working on plans for them and also making plans to winterize our beds. We had a great year, especially for tomatoes and peppers, and we're excited to start planning next year's gardens, including some new beds people in the community are giving us in their yards.

“To speak of ‘limits to growth’ under a capitalistic market economy is as meaningless as to speak of limits of warfare under a warrior society. The moral pieties, that are voiced today by many well-meaning environmentalists, are as naive as the moral pieties of multinationals are manipulative. Capitalism can no more be ‘persuaded’ to limit growth than a human being can be ‘persuaded’ to stop breathing. Attempts to ‘green’ capitalism, to make it ‘ecological’, are doomed by the very nature of the system as a system of endless growth.”

― Murray Bookchin
