The Conquest of Bread

This post was originally published on Alternative Estuary – a blog that loves it when people get stuck into serious practical projects that make a real difference at the grassroots.

This image was originally published by The Slow Buring Fuse in a post marking the 100th anniversary of the death of the anarchist, Kropotkin. The quote is from his work, The Conquest of Bread.

The idea expressed in this quote is what inspires us in supporting projects that aim to empower people at the grassroots. That particularly applies to projects that aim to give people the means to start growing their own food and move away from relying on a food supply chain dominated by the big corporations.

These are some of the posts we’ve written on this topic:

Seed banks – gaining control…

Why what we do IS political

Now more than ever, we need to grow our own food
