"It is tempting to look for enemies, but the conspiracy we face is one without conspirators."

"An alternative path exists: food should not be primarily a commodity. Food is a gift of God's Good Earth, for which all religious traditions teach gratitude. To subject it to the economic regime of the lowest bidder is to desecrate the gift and insult the Giver. For most of human history, the sharing of food was a significant social act, cementing ties between friends and kin, showing welcome to strangers. Today it has become an anonymous act of commerce."

~Charles Eisenstein.

An awesome article on alternative economics, focusing on small scale neighborhood food production. The middle ground that transcends its extreams of making for yourself, and mass production for the consumption of strangers. Awesome.

The book that this website is for looks soooooooo good too!
