Mark on the Radio
I wandered into Mark's room and saw that he
was listening to the Agroinnovations
podcast. "Tell us more about your back to the land story," I
heard.
Then Mark's voice popped out of the computer. "Well, like a lot
of stories, it starts with a girl..."
Awww! :-) I had to listen to the whole thing, and I hope you will
too. This was the first time Mark had been interviewed for a
podcast, so he was a bit nervous. But I suspect you'll like
hearing his story as much as I did.

Congrats Mark!
The media is a great way to get the word out and inspire people. My wife and I were just featured in the Denver Post and, although I don't think we are worthy of being called 'urban homesteaders' I'm happy that so many people are being introduced to the idea that you don't have to just grow roses and pansies in the city: http://www.denverpost.com/lifestyles/ci_12446769 .
You and Anna have inspired us in that we don't have to have a huge nest egg saved up or own a big farm house in order to live our own dreams. So thanks!
Now if you'll excuse me I have a podcast to listen too... Episode #53
