With apologies to R. Crumb for the less than optimal copy of this piece...

where does ECOTOPIA grow its food? it surely isn't coming in on bicycles...and going back to 19th century methods you would be working most of the day to grow enough food to eat much less sell.

We have shares in a CSA (community sustained agriculture) which resides on 5 acres a half mile from here, though there are dozens of other local farms offering similar deals. At least during the growing season (May-Oct) we are provided with a large box of produce that meets or exceeds our family's weekly requirements--not the only "solution", but proof that communities can and should be attempting to self-generate a portion of their food stuffs. Incidentally, our CSA has been in biz for twenty years as a women owned, run and operated farm. They don't have a single tractor or other mechanized implements except for a BCS walk-behind rototiller.

It's on 11th Ave., just South of the College--between Overhulse and Kaiser Rds. It sticks out like a sore thumb these days, though when I was a teenager this area was still primarily rural, but the attack of the cookie-cutter developments have laid waste to that bucolic dream.

count on a major famine getting rid of about 75% of the worlds population before Ecotopia could work...
