Re: new clear bonds

I hate to tell you this, but both the original 1960s back-to-the-land movement and this burgeoning current one are phenomena of left-of-center thinking. The right are perfectly happy to eat watery pink Mexican tomatoes and celebrate the wonders of NAFTA.

Also, your kitchen garden is more in line with New Deal wartime kitchen gardens or British greenbelt socialist gardens. A proper Jeffersonian garden would be 90% potatoes and turnips, because pragmatic people do not eat salads.
