I was on my way to work, in a rush and without having eaten breakfast. The roads were light so I had a few extra minutes and there it was . . . a drive in. Coffee. Donut. 1 minute. And that is only one reason why we (society) won't transition. There are many other reasons.
I know I can survive. I can build shelter and grow/preserve food & medicine/herb. But for some damn reason I am driven to gather those of like mind with me in this process. I just don't know yet how it will manifest.

A cooperative. 60 people -- 1000.00 bucks each. Purchase a restaurant type building. Each home will grow food, and what is not used is given to the central building where it will be preserved and cooked, Monday through Friday, lunch and supper for you to "drive by" and pick up on the way home from work. You will have to provide your own protein portion at home. You will also exchange your (non-plastic) serving ware when you pick up the food. It will be a zero waste process.
Slow Food in a Fast Way.
To be considered is what to do with the left over food. Given away in a soup kitchen (where the recipients must help in a community garden and/or clean up the central building? Or some other type of community service for the cooperative (will work for food.)
