NOFA-NH Book Club, Spring 2021

This spring join NOFA-NH and Seacoast Permaculture for a 5 part Zoom book discussion of "Think Like a Commoner" by David Bollier, every other Thursday from 7-8:30 PM: March 25, April 8, April 22, May 6 & May 20. For our first meeting, please read pages 1-36 (intro, chapter 1 & 2).

Access to land and other resources continues to be a huge challenge for people wanting to grow food. Creative and historical ways of addressing these barriers are being explored and discussed more and more. Join us to further that conversation!

Think Like a Commoner:  A Short Introduction to the Life of the Commons explains the rich history and promising future of the commons-an ageless paradigm of cooperation and fairness that is re-making our world. Think Like a Commoner explains how the commons: Is an exploding field of DIY innovation ranging from Wikipedia and seed-sharing to community forests and collaborative consumption; Challenges the standard narrative of market economics by explaining how cooperation generates significant value and human fulfillment; Provides a framework of law and social action that can help us move beyond the pathologies of neoliberal capitalism.
