If you’re living right and DOING right, your odds of staying safe are pretty high, no matter what color your skin happens to be. Even if anybody actually believes this ‘Freedom’ town was ever going to be a reality, the residents might wanna have a discussion about black on black crime in the first town hall meeting. Just saying…

We have more than 19 families and all are working on building the infrastructure with our engineers and with builders designing homes. This is a melanated community and you are welcome to come and shop our stores. We have a 5 year plan in phases.

Mind your business

Yep, it’s an obvious grift, they’ve done nothing but sit in a tent for a weekend taking selfies and then go home again. I hope nobody else wastes their money on these clowns because they clearly know nothing about farming

Sadly, have noticed much the same thing. Hopefully this will be the year some real progress is made. Seems like a lot of co-owners for the size of the farm.

I don’t know but those trying these methods could do worse than look at Gabe Brown’s regenerative methods in N Dakota including his use in his own kitchen garden of the Native American 3 sisters technique. Good luck though.

Their energies seem to be directed mostly at fundraising. I’d wonder where the money is going.
