Anarchocyclist Blog

March 23, 2008 · Filed Under General, Political 

I’ve been reading Anarchocyclist for a few years now. I’ve linked to it before in a few posts here, and for a short time it was in my blogroll. It was in my blogroll because I thought he was going to start a garden and post about it, but the garden never materialized.

This blog is located in British Columbia, I think in the greater Vancouver area. When I first started reading it doviende was working on a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics (I also studied Math) and planning an urban garden. He had even contacted his local authorities and began negotiating a city permit for a front yard vegetable garden. Yes, apparently the city of Vancouver issues permits for these, and they are not that difficult to get.

Anyway, circumstances changed and studying Math was no longer a priority and the Chinese language was much more interesting. This led to travel to China for language study. In the last several weeks he started a class in Punjabi and started planning a garden again! In particular he has been looking into a community garden (allotment). On the assumption a garden will soon materialize, I’m going to put the blog back in my blogroll.

This is an example of a garden blog that has a lot more than just gardening. He certainly sits on the extreme end of the political-gardening spectrum, is an interesting person who writes well and has a lot of interesting things to say. His blog is worth checking out.

    Thanks Patrick. I also have added this to my list. I enjoy and appreciate good discussions and am ever on the search for vegetable gardeners with a view beyond the back fence.

    I was looking forward to your views on the emissions trading scheme I wrote about recently. I know there are lots of sides to that sort of approach and I am not sure where I stand. I was hoping you would help me out!
