The Wingnut Wants Your Stuff!!
Johnny Ray, Jeremy and myself have been working our butts off fixing up the Wingnut (our house in Barton Heights on Northside). It looks like we will be done with the getting the house up to code construction very soon. But we will still have lots of work to do- we are going to be implementing strategies to make the house more sustainable as well as more fun. We are also looking to gather materials so we can make the house a super good environment for Food Not Bombs, and also make Food Not Bombs more sustainable. If you have any thing that you think we might like (remember, we are wingnuts) let us know and we can even come pick it up. Or if you want a tour of the house (you know you do, its flippin sweet) you can call me and arrange a time to come on by!
Ideas for the type of stuff we are looking for:
5 gallon buckets
shelves
picture frames
hoses Read the rest of this entry »

I just ordered Food Not Bombs Stickers, so hopefully they will come in the next two weeks and we can hand them out, get some donations for them, and help promote Richmond Food Not Bombs this way. The stickers will look like this:

If anyone wants one, well they should come to Food Not Bombs once we have them OR you can get one from us at the Tim Barry Show in Richmond on October 15th:
TIm Barry Revival Tour! FOOD NOT BOMBS
Food Not Bombs Tabling at the show!
Food Not Bombs will be tabling at the Revival Tour Tim Barry Show at the Canal Club.
Huge thanks to Tim Barry for letting us table at his show.

I bought a house.
Weird, right.
Using my good credit and with the help of my parent’s good credit (thanks class privilege), I bought a house in Richmond.
It is a big house, but needs work before I am allowed to live there.
Things which have to be done include:
New Electric
New Plumbing
Install Bathroom and Kitchen Floors
Build Bathroom Wall
Pass Lead paint inspection.
When done though, The Big Dixie will be home to Richmond Food Not Bombs and other epic projects.
If you wanna help paint or clean, holla

I’m currently in Ann Arbor, MI, because I had to come here to get a fine fellow name of Joe, to help me convert my F250 diesel to vegetable oil. I have a turbo diesel, which requires an adjustment different from a non turbo diesel conversion. I’m really excited to have a veggie truck!!! I’m going to have to start collecting and filtering vegetable oil when I get back to Richmond. Any advice/help on that wanted. But once I have it all down this should be epic. I’ll be so much more capable of dumpstering and food not bombs trips without so much money spent. GIVE ME ALL YOUR OILZ

For as long as anyone can remember, the FBI has infiltrated radical communities in hopes of framing people on criminal charges. This has intensified in anarchist circles over the past few years. A handful of unfortunates now languish in prison, serving up to decades for actions they never carried out and probably would never have even considered were it not for the efforts of agents provocateurs. How does the government choose who to target? What factors put people at risk? Most importantly, what can we do to protect ourselves and each other? Read the rest of this entry »

On Monday June 29th, the City of Grand Junction tried to pass two emergency ordinances outlawing “soliciting,” also known as flying a sign or spanging. What stopped the city from moving forward with these laws was a strong, large, and loud group of homeless people and younger radicals.
