Since I last wrote about Earthineer.com, Dan has been adding lots of new features and more are on their way. There are currently Communities, Newsletters, Messages, Friend Feeds, and Photos. The new features will include Pins and Trading. Personally, I’m really interested in the ability to trade with others in my area, either equipment, crops, or whatever.
Check it out! Earthineer is free and full of great information.
In my post on the Mother Earth News Fair, I quickly mentioned Earthineer.com, which is a social network dedicated to sustainability. I want to mention it again, because I think that, as it grows, it’s going to become a valuable resource for those of us considering whole, healthy foods, local interdependence, community building, working with heirloom plants and animals, and saving our environment from further degradation.
There is a long video describing Earthineer in detail. For an overview of the latest features, see a shorter video. Both will give you a much better idea of how it works. There are also some tutorials on YouTube which can be found by searching for Earthineer.
In my opinion, this can be a good resource for everything from advice on raising chickens to forming crop mobs to trading goods and services locally. Check it out and see what you think.
