The Living Mountain Farm
Donation protected
My name is Curtis, I am 27 and a native of Florida. I recently graduated from USF with a BA in Political Science. I've always wanted to get out of the city and make something for myself that I could be proud of. My girlfriend Manuela and I have put a deposit down on a 23-acre plot of land in Tennessee, and will be moving up November 15th. In the spring, we will be clearing out the old, dead plants and remaking/planting the land using sustainable organic farming techniques. All money raised will go towards this endeavor! In the meantime, I will be keeping a blog of the entire process, from city-boy to mountain-man!
My short-term goals for this move are to 1.) Grow and maintain the farm, exploring sustainable techniques, 2.) Establish a writing portfolio for a political writing career, and 3.) Help others learn by living vicariously through me throughout this whole process.
My long-term goal is to start a nonprofit that promotes sustainability education and critical thinking in government/policy-making.
Manuela's long-term goal is to start a farm to table restaurant, and make people happy with food!
Any help is enthusiastically appreciated! We are willing to put in the work and time necessary to accomplish all these goals, and I believe that collective action can make it all the more possible!
