Title: Mo - And Her Farm in the Hood
Post by: RuralNc on August 14, 2022, 04:25:11 PM
Ill be the first to tell ya, we need more farms. In the city, suburbs, in the country. Where ever. But we do need them. If someone wants to grow veggies and flowers in their front yard, be it so. I take no issue with it. I also live in the country where no one gives a damn what you do in your front, or back yard. So, theres that.

Mo here shares some tales of the struggles of having an Urban/Hood Farm.

a short convo w my peeps that i never met.

so, i have this urban farm. i get hassled, but i also get a lot of love. posted this on my farm blog this a.m.

out yesterday harvesting wild plants. i have my headphones on, but as 3 peeps i dont know approach, smiling and pointing.
i whip the phones off and say hello.
"your garden is just gorgeous" still walking.
"thanks so much. there are a few haters, so i always appreciate hearing from the lovers."
"whaaaa?" all 3 in concert.
"it's all good, i just need to hear from the other sode sometimes"
"you keep doing you"
"oh honey, this is my freak flag. long may it wave"
3 fists high in the air as they disappear down the street.
yup, yup, that's what floats this boat.
maybe one of these days i'll sit in my front window and count all the gawkers, and the smiles, for a day. i'd have some numbers for just how much this little project adds to this hood.
the teens on the block think of this place as a park. there's numbers out there for the worth of green spaces.
this thing makes this hood better, measurably.

Theres..... a.... Blog? Oh please. Is there a link?  Anybody? :fuelfire:

She posted a video a while back in her "farm". Bunch of damn weeds and looked like a homeless encampment.

Yet you and your kind frequently mock and consistently hate those who live in most "green spaces" in America,

So ... playing along with mo-mo's game, does her "farm" produce edible veggies? In quantities sufficient to exceed her personal use? Sufficient to produce income? If the latter, how interested should the IRS and various social agencies be?
