Hit up fb again, to drum up support. Some of my peeps have similar interests, may have helped who knows.
Either way, looks like congrats are in order. One vote away! Looking forward to watching this study grow. -Jimmy |

Thanks again! Woot woot! PS BTW As I was investigating the grants, I did find another worthy project completely unrelated to me personally that I believe is just as worthy. This guy has developed a solar panel that inexpensively can be installed DIY by nearly anyone. It's a fully functional "plug in" solar that maybe soon will be found at any big box store if he gets his grant. I think a whole lot of us gardeners and farmers would jump at the possibility to do something like that at a decent price. I know I would. I don't know the guy personally. So I can't vouch for him personally. But I did vote for him. Solar

What Worth said...
Congratulations, Scott! Here's to hoping you will breeze through the review process now. And how kind of you to link to the Solar project.

Thanks to your support I officially made it to the judging phase of the Mission Main Street Grants program from Chase! I am in the running for a $100,000 grant which I will use to buy equipment to expand my small market farm and of course this project. Recipients will be announced in September - wish me luck!

Thanks everyone. BTW I was able to talk to Allan Savory on the phone today about the Red Baron Project and the wikipedia page I wrote on Holistic management! What a thrill! I am afraid I did embarrassingly ramble a bit though.

Very interesting article, Scott. You also have always been very supportive for the ANATOHUM Project. I am working on the new database page now and hopefully when it is ready, I would like to continue to work with project volunteers again. So many things to do!

I'm sorry for not posting much-needed updates. My computer crashed. Will try to catch up soon.
