How Older Farmers Can Contact SKIP Participants

   I am searching for my forever homestead.  I recently sold my house and am traveling AR, MO, and OK in my search.  I met an 88 year old woman who is all alone and needs to get in contact with a couple of SKIP members.  Not sure if she would be interested in eventually selling or gifting the farm, but she is open to you buying some cows and running the heard as one.  I got her number, but I can't find a way for her to get involved. (Paul, we need a banner link to a page with "get involved" for all these kinds of programs. Maybe you have it and I just can't find it.)

There is a need for a clearinghouse to bring us the current stewards of the land wishing to foster the continuance of living as one with the land, and those who are starting or progressing stage to plant a family with the land. Just as the Native American of the world held that land really wasn’t owned, but rather engaged in the raising of a family. I’m currently wrestling with society’s mire of laws and restrictions on the people that have the heart & soul to embrace the God given privilege to raise a family and become stewards of God’s gifts. With the God given experience of this life I want to plan and protect the propagation of “GOOD “ stewardship. Working on design for a small community with qualities that reflect God given principles and the fellowship of like thinking individuals to do right by their family. The act of pulling together and festering teamwork to develop the family’s growth. The mind set of the permaculture does provide the preparation of the individual to take this journey, it then takes the pairing up with us current land stewards to help provide the fertile ground to plant these up coming family seeds. Most GOOD stewards are not about the money or value of the tangible things but the protection and propagation of a suitable way of life for the family. It takes planning and trust to pass on stewardship of God’s gift of the land. Anyway enough said, looking to see how this tread works out.
