I give this book 10 out of 10 acorns.

Is it possible to fulfil all our caloric needs outside the industrial food system? If yes, then what would it take to restore local food systems? Robin explores these topics as deeply as possible as he grows and forages for 100% of his food for an entire year! He's real. He's emotional. He's successful! He not only takes you along for the journey, but he inspires and supports the reader in a journey to their own improved food sovereignty. Robin will have you planting seeds and learning new skills before the conclusion of this book.

Interestingly, you cannot buy his book. Ever true to his ideals, Robin offers this gift without price as a barrier. It's an experiment in the gift economy. Anyone who wishes is encouraged to make a donation for their copy. All proceeds from sharing the book will go to Gardens Of Liberation, a non-profit organization that helps underserved communities grow gardens.  

Because I love this book and it's message so much, I chose to become an ambassador of Food Freedom. Anyone from permies.com who would like a copy, please Purple Moose-age me. I'll be happy to mail you a copy. I just ask you to pay for medial mail shipping. (less than $3)
