Today is a thought experiment on the Holler Neighbor Food Cooperative idea. Problem we solve: How everyone who is working in our community to gain value from the land can benefit from their efforts while also balancing between those who have more capitol inputs and those who have more labor inputs July 31 GSD Weekend at the Darkhorse Lodge - last change to go hang out with awesome people. Stump the Sauce From Jason: coffee shortage Crop Damage timeline Current panic “Shortage” defined Main topic of the Show:  Holler Neighbors Food Cooperative Holler Neighbor Livestream/Strategic Plan BackgroundSWOT - Food Production For Ourselves and OthersAttempt 1: Crockpot mealsAttempt 2: Neighbor Pantry vs Individual Pantries Latest Concept - Holler Dollar Tracking System Goal - better manage who gets what share of what things we produce. Capitol Investment vs Labor Investment Ways to earn outside money Initial Set up, $2,000 and incorporation (not sure we need to corporation  but will incorporate under under legal advice if needed) $$  used for USD expenditures, feed, infrastructure, veterinarian bills, utilities, etc $$ reinvested either from partners or sales revenue Sales revenue is OBV taxable Holler Neighbors can Buy A Neighbor Membership for $50/year (revenue to the corporation). This earns the right to access membership benefits like food education, they get an annual amount of Holler Dollar Vouchers and may use vouchers to obtain the food we grow together.  Holler Dollars: Neighbors can Buy or Earn Holler Dollars and pay for pantry items with Holler Dollars. Earned through food production or preservation labor. Neighbor members can give other neighbor members Holler Dollars in gratitude for random work performed (lawn mowing, etc).  Non Neighbor Membership is available for, say $500 dollars and gets a person access to educational days, a certain number of holler dollars, but they cannot “earn” holler dollars by working on food projects. What do you think of this concept? Membership Plug Make it a great week! GUYS!

I was on the meat canning webinar and it was great. While I have canned, it's not as consistent as I want. I've been listening to you for years & joined your membership fairly recently. We're honestly not as prepared as we should be but, we've done little things here and there. I'm not very social online at all but, I hope to put myself out there more and meet like minded people.  Main topic of the Show: Success and Failure of the Great (personal) Reset Lessons learned Go all in - I did not (The drive to deliver coffee is strong and I flubbed the preparation week) Take responsibility for focus  Choose an organizing principle for the time, not 50 I’ll just finish this one small thing story - I need to go get  a pen You might need to leave Even if you flub the ball, it is the right thing to do Made important business decisions Got much of the tile done (Universe conspiracy) Rested Up Roasted a TON Caught up with friends Quiet time with Sage and research on how to feed her The Ditch/Willis Event, etc… Taking a Great Reset the perfect way may mean leave your home, it may mean take better responsibility than I did a week ago, or it may mean something completely different. And taking  Great Reset imperfectly still will bring you benefits when you do it -- so do it. Membership Plug MeWe reminder Make it a great week! GUYS!

Today is a Friday so we have an interview show and Ken Eash is back to talk with us about tapping into limitless opportunities in the service industry. Sometimes it is better to learn a trade than to become a philosopher.

With 30 years in construction, would you say building things is your purpose in life?  All this talk of purpose, but how does that tie into what you say are "limitless opportunities in the service industry"? What does a person have to do to get started? How does this talk of the opportunities in services play into your purpose? What would you say to someone who's still on the fence about jumping into the services field? GUYS!
