One vindication of our garden-according-to-Nature method comes from the unlikeliest source!

We at Rawganique.com have been doing this do-nothing for a while too, amidst disbelief from some of our neighbors.
This article on sustainable living, raw foodism, veganism, humanure composting, and hemp economy was written for the new edition of Perfect Body by Roe Gallo, one of the greatest and most beautiful people, raw or not, in the world. Roe is full of energy, love, and kindness and always brimming over with happiness. She's such an inspiration to us, that's why we were ecstatic when Roe asked us to contribute to her book because she likes what we do.Â
I've written this saga about our raw food vegan self-sufficient off-the-grid year-round gardening lifestyle in response to questions and inquiries that we have received over the years from customers and visitors of Rawganique.com. I will describe the different aspects of our homesteading life, which includes solar panels, wind generator (no gas generator), our assortment of pet animals (ducks, geese, chickens, dogs, and cats), our organic garden, our love for clay-bottom ponds, and the many sources of inspiration that have propelled us to seek our current lifestyle.
