Really nice bunch of people doing really good things - but more than that, being able to speak about it without preaching in good honest language........clearly the way forward!

I liked the phrase "growing food is one of the most dangerous occupations on the face of this Earth...because you are in danger of becoming free"

It is an inspiring video, however 'nice bunch of people' possibly, but not necessarily, there have been a few incidents where that family have aggressively tried to prevent others from using the term 'urban homestead' and have also nicked other folks ideas (or ideas that have been common knowledge for decades or more) and then claimed ownership of those ideas.

I'm not knocking the video, anything that inspires folks to try their hand at growing something is worth encouraging.

Trademarks, Copyrights & Thieves, OH MY!

Pasadena family enforces its trademark of the term "Urban Homestead"

Urban farming family who trademarked "Urban Homesteading" accused of plagiarism
