FFFN Introduction from Jerome Peloquin 9 months ago NOT YET RATED

I sat down with a friend and just recorded without a shooting script, teleprompter. I just spoke from my heart. I hope it shows. We shot in two segments and a friend edited them together. It could likely use some more editing but I want it to be real. We are not ONLY about the money. Profit is important ...but people are what really makes a business successful. We are about both: People AND Profits. Food is essential to life. It should be fresh and unadulterated. We make that point strongly in this video. As I hope this video clearly points out urban farming, growing food where it is consumed is the future of food. Aquaponics, where all the water is recycled and no fertilizer is applied is the most efficient ecologically sound method for growing and producing high quality veggies and seafood based protein. This assures a balanced diet is available locally no matter the international conditions.. Our model is contrary to the present inefficient centralized and environmentally destructive system that is petroleum intensive and a green house gas generator. We believe that ours is the business model of the future: distributive as opposed to centralized growing and a socially responsible staffing structure that rewards loyalty with worker equity and participation.
