We built hyperlocavore.com to support people growing food in yard sharing arrangements with neighbors, friends and family. It is a lot of work to grow your own but people in groups can bring the skills, strength, time and resources together to make the food to plate distance even shorter! We are here to help people form and maintain yard sharing systems, suburban farming and to help bring back neighborhood street life. Would you consider linking to our site? There are all kinds of people who find the idea useful, apartment dwellers, older folks, busy folks, disabled folks, poor folks... all benefit from getting together to grow food.



We also help community, faith and service organizations set up yard sharing groups for their members or neighborhoods. Produce exchanges are also a tool we help people with, so not one zucchini need go to waste. People share tools, time, space and food. Kids learn where food comes from, how to eat better, how good super fresh food tastes and how to grow their own. Seniors reconnect to their neighbors.

 

We are set up to accommodate public and private yard sharing groups from anywhere. The site is FREE!
So if you think this is a good idea, come on by!
