Paul, thanks for posting that summary of the "Achieving Food 
Independence" piece, and for your kind words.

"Integration" on the homestead--to increase synergy, diversity, 
efficiency--will be the theme of my all-day presentation on Fri Nov 9 at 
the Weston A. Price Foundation's annual conference in Chantilly, VA. 
(Anybody on the list attending, please be sure to say hello.) I'm 
starting today writing a new piece at about the size of "Achieving Food 
Independence," but more tightly focused on this theme of "integration," 
which I will use as a hand-out for the presentation. The presentation 
will be available after the conference (I think on DVD), and I'm sure 
I'll have the piece published, and eventually it will be on my website.

I'll keep the list advised as it becomes more widely available.

~Harvey
