Bio: "Doing what we can, where we are, with what we have - right now." Since the mid '80s the Dervaes family have steadily worked away at transforming their ordinary city lot in Pasadena, CA into an integral urban homestead. They regard their 1/5 acre urban homestead as a sustainable living resource center where they are setting out to live by example while also inspiring others to “just do it!” Founded by Jules Dervaes in 2001, PathtoFreedom.com is a family operated, viable urban homesteading project which is breaking new ground every year. Their yard has over 350 varieties of edible and useful plants. The homestead's productive 1/10 acre organic garden now grows over 6,000lbs (3 tons) of organic produce annually providing fresh vegetables and fruit for the family’s vegetarian diet along with a viable income. In addition they have chickens, ducks, goats, brew their own biodiesel (made from waste (free!) vegetable oil) to fuel their car, etc. http://youtube.com/profile?user=dervaes
