Guest guest Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 Yes, I've been thinking about looking into that. It can be done. There are other groups doing it now. In fact, there are groups in the mainland USA who buy abandoned farms and arable property to start a self-supporting plantation with anyone who wants to shun the conventional, Madison Avenue-driven lifestyle. We can discuss it along with the health benefits of fresh picked tropical fruit. Why not co-op a tract of tropical land? Belize maybe?
