I am Tim Scott aka Vampiric Aphid, and will be bringing to your cerebral cortex my first hand experience at growing and making my own food, which is also my first experience at doing either. Through this blog I will show that anyone can begin living this way and for a surprising number of excellent reasons which I and Kimu will go into greater detail about. While I will be in the trenches providing first hand accounts of my effort and putting theory to practice, my good friend Kimu will offer his own insight and hard facts on the impact of our current living standards on the world and how it simply is not sustainable. I guarantee you won’t ever look at vegetables, fruit or meat the same ever again!
Some things I will be discussing:
- How to start growing fruit and vegetables
- Lessons to learn
- How growing and consuming locally saves you and others money
- How to easily make your own food
- Caring of a garden and its impact on your life
- Health benefits
- Long-term storage of excess produce and fruit
- Philosophical meanderings about it all
Up Next: How to start a backyard garden and the fight to be an organic grower.

The tales of two friends - a Rhode Island accountant, planting the roots of the new American farmer in his suburban backyard, and a Baltimore researcher, elucidating the links between food, health, and the environment while exploring the potential for locally grown foods in an urban setting. In the words of Wendell Berry, "How we eat determines, to a considerable extent, how the world is used."
