Greenfield ndi waku America yemwe watha zaka zambiri za moyo wake wa 32 akulimbikitsa zinthu zofunika monga kuchepetsa zinyalala za chakudya ndi zinthu zobwezeretsanso.
Choyamba, Greenfield adapeza kuti ndi zomera ziti zomwe zidachita bwino ku Florida polankhula ndi alimi akumaloko, kuyendera malo osungiramo anthu, kupita kumakalasi amitu, kuwonera makanema a YouTube, ndikuwerenga mabuku okhudza zomera zakumaloko.
"Poyamba, sindinkadziwa momwe ndingakulire chilichonse m'derali, koma miyezi 10 pambuyo pake ndinayamba kulima ndi kukolola 100% ya chakudya changa," akutero Greenfield. "Ndangogwiritsa ntchito chidziwitso cha komweko chomwe chinalipo kale."
Greenfield ndiye adayenera kupeza malo okhala, popeza alibe malo ku Florida - ndipo sakufuna. Kupyolera mu malo ochezera a pa Intaneti, adafikira anthu a Orlando kuti apeze wina wofuna kumulola kumanga nyumba yaying'ono pamalo ake. Lisa Ray, katswiri wazomera yemwe amakonda ulimi wamaluwa, adadzipereka kwa iye malo kuseri kwa nyumba yake, komwe Greenfield adamanga kanyumba kake kakang'ono, kakang'ono ka 9 masikweya mita.
Mkati mwa danga laling'ono lomwe lili pakati pa futon ndi desiki laling'ono lolembera, mashelufu apansi mpaka pansi amadzazidwa ndi zakudya zosiyanasiyana zofufumitsa (mango, nthochi ndi viniga wa apulo cider, vinyo wa uchi, etc.), phala, mitsuko ya uchi. (zokolola ku ming'oma ya njuchi, zomwe Greenfield mwiniwake amazisamalira), mchere (wophika kuchokera m'madzi a m'nyanja), zouma mosamala ndi zosungidwa zitsamba ndi zinthu zina. Pakona pakona pali firiji yodzaza ndi tsabola, mango, ndi zipatso zina ndi ndiwo zamasamba zokololedwa m'munda wake ndi malo ozungulira.
Khitchini yaying'ono yakunja ili ndi fyuluta yamadzi ndi chipangizo chofanana ndi chitofu cha msasa (koma choyendetsedwa ndi biogas yopangidwa kuchokera ku zinyalala za chakudya), komanso migolo yotengera madzi amvula. Pali chimbudzi chosavuta cha kompositi pafupi ndi nyumbayo komanso shawa lamadzi lamvula.
"Zomwe ndimachita ndizabwino kwambiri, ndipo cholinga changa ndikudzutsa anthu," akutero Greenfield. “United States ili ndi 5% ya anthu padziko lonse lapansi ndipo imagwiritsa ntchito 25% yazinthu zonse zapadziko lonse lapansi. Podutsa ku Bolivia ndi ku Peru, ndalankhula ndi anthu kumene quinoa anali gwero lalikulu la chakudya. Koma mitengo yakwera maulendo 15 chifukwa anthu akumadzulo akufunanso kudya quinoa, ndipo tsopano anthu akumeneko sangakwanitse kugula.”
"Anthu omwe akufuna pulojekiti yanga ndi gulu lamwayi la anthu omwe amasokoneza moyo wamagulu ena, monga momwe zinalili ndi mbewu ya quinoa, yomwe anthu a ku Bolivia ndi Peru sangakwanitse," akutero Greenfield, wonyada chifukwa chosagula. kuyendetsedwa ndi ndalama. M'malo mwake, ndalama zonse za Greenfield zinali $5000 chaka chatha.
"Ngati wina ali ndi mtengo wa zipatso kutsogolo kwawo ndipo ndikuwona zipatso zikugwera pansi, nthawi zonse ndimapempha eni ake chilolezo kuti athyole," akutero Greenfield, yemwe amayesa kusaphwanya malamulo, nthawi zonse amapeza chilolezo chotolera chakudya. katundu wamba. "Ndipo nthawi zambiri sindimaloledwa kutero, koma ndimafunsidwa - makamaka mango ku South Florida nthawi yachilimwe."
Greenfield amadyanso m'madera ena ndi mapaki ku Orlando komweko, ngakhale akudziwa kuti izi zitha kukhala zosemphana ndi malamulo amzindawu. “Koma ndimatsatira malamulo a Dziko Lapansi, osati malamulo a mzinda,” iye akutero. Greenfield ndi wotsimikiza kuti ngati aliyense angasankhe kuchitira chakudya monga momwe amachitira, dziko lingakhale lokhazikika komanso lopanda chilungamo.
Pomwe Greenfield anali kuchita bwino posakasaka chakudya m'mataya, tsopano amakhala ndi zokolola zatsopano, zokolola kapena zolimidwa yekha. Sagwiritsa ntchito zakudya zilizonse zomwe zidasungidwa kale, motero Greenfield amathera nthawi yambiri akukonza, kuphika, kupesa, kapena kuziziritsa chakudya.
Moyo wa Greenfield ndikuyesa ngati n'zotheka kukhala ndi moyo wokhazikika panthawi yomwe chakudya cha padziko lonse chasintha momwe timaganizira za chakudya. Ngakhale Greenfield mwiniwake, yemwe polojekitiyi isanayambike adadalira masitolo am'deralo ndi misika ya alimi, sakudziwa zotsatira zake.
“Ntchitoyi isanachitike, kunalibe chinthu choti ndidye chakudya cholimidwa kapena kukolola tsiku limodzi,” akutero Greenfield. "Patha masiku 100 ndipo ndikudziwa kale kuti moyowu ukusintha - tsopano nditha kulima ndikudya zakudya ndipo ndikudziwa kuti ndingapeze chakudya kulikonse komwe ndingakhale."
Greenfield akuyembekeza kuti polojekiti yake ithandiza kulimbikitsa anthu kuti azidya zachilengedwe, kusamalira thanzi lawo ndi dziko lapansi, komanso kuyesetsa kukhala ndi ufulu.
