πΏ Join Us
You become a member when you decide to live the Homegrown & Homemade way of life.
There is no registration process.
There are no fees or dues.
There is no initiation ritual or membership list.
Only you in your heart can know if you truly are a member. Membership is a decision of the heart, not the mouth, so in this honorable society there are no oaths.
Right now you may only wish to scratch the surface - curious about the mystery of Homegrown and Homemade, but hesitant to jump down the rabbit hole.
That is totally fine, as timing is everything and everything happens at its own pace, this is the rhythym of the Tao. Some will walk away and others will walk around. A select few will jump down the rabbit hole. Who each of these people are is not my choice and their decision is not my choice to make.
This is not about supporting me. It is about supporting each other. Therefore, Homegrown & Homemade is not a greedy business, it is an honorable society.
The Three Pillars of Homegrown & Homemade
Living in Harmony With Nature
- β’ Growing food, raising animals.
- β’ Seeking self-sufficiency.
- β’ Mastering the forces of nature.
Living in Harmony With Each Other
- β’ Community over competition.
- β’ Sharing knowledge.
- β’ Gift giving and reciprocation.
Living in Harmony With Our Selves
- β’ Listening inward.
- β’ Living with integrity.
- β’ Staying true to who we are.
This way of life continues to evolve β just as we do.
From Self-Sufficiency to Community Sufficiency
We will still work jobs. We will still buy groceries. We will still trade, use money, and participate in the existing world.
I do not hate technology - right now, Homegrown & Homemade mostly exists as a digital presence in cyberspace. Technology is not inherently bad or evil.
This is not about abandoning society or pretending modern life doesnβt exist. Itβs about slowly reducing total dependence on systems that do not care about us and seek to exploit us.
It is a rejection of endless consumerism and blind materialism. It is a way of life where we produce what we can and help each other out. Consumerism becomes balanced by Producerism and Materialism gets balanced by Love.
Most people cannot become fully self-sufficient, and that has never really been the goal. A single household doing everything alone is fragile. A community where people each produce something is strong.
Maybe one person keeps chickens. Another grows vegetables. Another bakes bread. Another repairs tools.
Over time, reliance shifts. Not all at once, and not perfectly, but steadily.
Jobs can fund gardens. Stores can supply what we cannot yet produce. Money can help build the very independence that eventually reduces the need for it.
The goal is not to abolish the modern world overnight. The goal is to build a foundation beneath it β one that provides shared knowledge, more food security, and less social conflict.
Independence creates freedom. Shared independence creates stability.
Homegrown & Homemade aims toward a society that is more de-centralized, more human, and more capable of sustaining itself β environmentally, socially, and practically over the long term.
