Years ago I followed the blog of Sharon Astyk. She was an interesting writer, an environmentalist who pushed peak oil and locavore ideas. She and her husband and children lived on a small farm where she did her canning, writing books, and held classes on her ideas. I didn't agree with her ideas but found her persona appealing.
Time passed and she gradually dropped the blog and pushing her ideas and devoted more time and energy to foster children. (I don't know if she ever dealt with the failure of her predictions to eventuate.)
The other day I googled her and found this article: the Astyks have left the farm for an urban setting, taking advantage of a city for rearing foster children with special needs.
