Donations requested from non-students to continue Urban Homestead outreach to students

Since 2001, Jules Dervaes and his family have been living a protest—Path to Freedom Urban Homestead—against corporate control of the food supply. They can now grow over 6,000 pounds of produce annually on a one-fifth acre residential lot in Pasadena, CA (1/10 acre garden). Their project incorporates alternative energy and transportation, “citified” farm animals and back-to-basics practices. Mr. Dervaes will present steps individuals can take where they are and with what they have, to become independent and live as responsible stewards of the earth. This presentation will include a screening of the award-winning 16 minute film short, Homegrown Revolution, introducing the Urban Homestead and how it was transformed (www.UrbanHomestead.org.)
