#bartereconomy

Had a lovely visit from Kikit, one of our sweet elderly neighbors. She brought us a beautiful gift of baby bananas to let us know that she’s been thinking of us. We in turn shared some of our avocados and a papaya. She mentioned that she was craving a cup of fresh juice, so the papaya was perfect. We both came off happy campers as I’ve been craving bananas as well 😊 ・・・ #growninhaiti #Neighbor #elderly #community #family #sharingiscaring #bartereconomy #fruits #fresh #love #foodsecurity #localization #haiti #ayiti https://www.instagram.com/p/CB37ZEPF6vu/?igshid=1pa8mlqxi7p37

Had some great discussions with Fenny from Namibia during her time with us. You can fine her on the documentary “The Story of God” with #MorganFreeman. Was please to hear about the many similarities as well as the differences that our countries share. #growninhaiti #haiti #namibia #ayiti #volunteer #reforestation #preservation #voluntourism #bartereconomy #friends #africa #culture #roots

Rediscovering Consumer Power in Ethical Capitalism A philosophical reflection on leadership, resilience, and the human condition. By David Leon Dantes | January 7th, 2026

Barter economy in action. Traded some sourdough started to some neighbors in exchange for some home roasted beans (was a full jar...) . Also sourdough bread is a pain in the ass, but sourdough pizza and sourdough crackers rock and are much easier to make. #coffee #mokapot #sourdough #bartereconomy https://www.instagram.com/p/B_dYRmDFE9o/?igshid=1vpjkq0mfhzeh

I need some egg cartons. Posted on local boards for exchange. Free duck eggs for a stack of six. I could buy cartons, but that's not how I roll. #farmerproblems #duckeggs #bartereconomy #buynothing

Getting a screaming deal on A/C install this week, because we did the initial prep inside and out. But it meant I had to move my rhubarb. So no harvesting this year for Thrasher Micro-farm. Good thing my neighbor let's me pick theirs. Here's the before and afters. New home for the Rhubarb is next to my butterfly garden. Let's hope it thrives. #drunklandscaping #growfoodnotlawns #diy #bartereconomy #thisisclimatechange
