Urban Homestead


What strikes you about their movie?

What strikes me is how fast they were able to turn their whole house into a farm. To this great dedication is required and great respect for the planet.


What do you think the Dervaes’ family Needs vs. Wants sheet would look like? Why? Well there Wants would probably would be low for they seem to be extremely happy with what they got. Now their need also small for they grow most of what the eat so the food expense is ruled out.


How does the Dervaes family fit into what we are studying in My Ishmael?

Sustainability. They defiantly live sustainably.


Overall, what are your thoughts on the way this family lives and works?

They seem happy and content with how they are saving the earth. For them this way works and they like what the do. For me it would also work if there were a source of meat in the diet.
